Thursday, we had our emergency follow-up exam, and we received a clean diagnosis! There was no sign of scratching or ulcers or anything, and his eye had completely come back out to where it normally is. Yay! No more NSAIDs, either. He's all good, thank goodness!
His ears are also doing REALLY well. We're finally kicking the butts of those nasty yeast infections. His left ear is almost completely cleared up, and his right ear is 100 times better than it was - just a little bit gunky. We are just finishing up a bottle of the Mometamax, and then we'll be on to our last bottle. He gets 8 drops in his right ear every day, and 8 drops in his left ear every other day. That seems to be working really well for him as he is not tilting or shaking his head or scratching at his ears at all anymore! The only times he shakes is after I put the drops in his ears and massage the fluid into them.
So, yeah, he's a happy, healthy puppy!
I kind of have a feeling, though, that if we can't kick the ear infection by the time we're done with our next bottle of Mometamax (which will last about a month) that they may have become chronic. Hmm.
