I'm going to ask the local vet tomorrow. I am afraid he will say he has  
never done it and I should go to Red bank, which is so far away and stresses 
her  
so much. I know they will do it there. The problem with draining is that it  
usually comes right back. But some people say it takes a few weeks to come 
back,  though most say a few days. Apparently injecting dexamethasone into the  
abdominal cavity after draining can slow its refilling time, but my vet has  
already told me he is afraid to give an intra-abdominal injection.

Can they aspirate any of  the fluid off to relieve the pressure?
