Thank you so much. I will start a new feed.

Hi I am new to this forum and desperately trying to find answers for my greyhound. But the above picture is exactly what he develped 3 days ago. Like to a T, but he did experience the screaming when touched. He is my 8 yo cuddle bug. After three days, he is still at the emergency ICU becuase he aslo had a high fever and was very lethargic with a couple of hours of this all starting. Vet still doesn’t have a good answer for me as to the cause. No puncture wounds or bites. Labs are fairly ok. But now the swelling edema is all in his limp, he has weeping ulcers, and his belly and chest and underside are all bright red and edenemous too. Almost like blood or fluid is pooling. It is scary and heartbreaking because I feelnlike a sitting duck and just waiting. He is on fluid and Doxycycline just in case it is tick borne. But I am at a loss and just looking to find some guidance or if other greys have had this and their diagnosis so that I can bring this to the vet’s attention. I just feel helpless with sad that my cuddle bug is going though this and we have no direction or answers.

Hello! I came across this forum and thread while trying to do some research on my greyhoundscondition and your thread hit the nail on the head. He is currently in an ICU vet and has been there for 3 day so far with no real diagnosis. But his symptom profile matches exactly the onset and characteristics as your greyhound. Did you ever get an answer or diagnosis for your greyhound? Im just trying to help get some answers and direction. Thanks
