NeylasMom Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 For anyone who has been following the vulva saga - or for anyone else just because seeing a thread title with the word vulva in it is always good for a laugh - Skye had her check up today after our visit last week and everything is looking great! Her vulva looks SO much better. There's some discoloration that I think is from the silver, which we're no longer using and there's still some redness where the rawness was, but it looks pretty much healed. We're keeping her on the Apoquel to give her plenty of time to have really healthy tissue there and I am still wiping her after walks and occasionally applying ointment if I think she needs it, but we're well on the right track, whoo hoo! Vet also said anal glands are looking good. She had been licking a bit more the last couple of days so I started warm Epsom salt compresses and have been using her "panties" to keep her from licking, but the vet was pleased. We're going to do another week of antibiotics to be safe, but hopefully that's taken care of as well. Nice to have a positive update for a change so just thought I'd share.

sarabz Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 Yay!! We've been having our first experience with Apoquel as well and it works beautifully without the side effects of steroids. Really happy that Skye is so much better.
