We adopted a rescue about 2 years ago. Teisha was found on the street of a city with a serious eye infection. It took 2 bouts of antibiotics to clear it up. The vet at the time said she felt it was herpes. The vet did no tests of any kind and just announced that I would have to keep Teisha on Lysine for the rest of her life. She was about 8 mos old when she was found.
She has had no respiratory issues only that one eye infection.I have read that there can be serious complications with Lysine and am wondering if I cut down on her dosage if I might be able to take her right off it?
Our vets up in Canada are real big in upselling and I buy the liquid pump from the vet at 30 bucks a shot. I have no problem paying it if it is necessary but I am just wondering if most vets do tests to determine Herpes or it's an educated guess?
