Pam Years ago I had a ShihTzu that had autoimmune deficiency. We almost
lost her in the beginning - was given an initial booster dose of prednisone and
stayed on that until we lost her at 13 yrs. old. She was diagnosed at 5 yrs
old. So there is hope,. Of course, had to have blood checks every few months
once she was stable and levels done of the meds to make sure they we enough
for her system. For a while she was on pred 3xs a day. She needed extra care
but it was worth it!!! So don't give up - will be praying for you and Tilly
