Minelson, just seeing this thread after you posted in Duke's thread.

I am rooting for Gretta and for you! I hope she decides to kick what ever is troubling her. I know how devoted you are.

hugs
Cathy

Vet just left. He is stumped. Gave her an injection of Dex and Thiamine IV. Took a poop sample to fecal test. He is going to do some research and run the fecal and call me. He agrees that Tetracycline is the best antibiotic for systemic infection and to keep her on it. She is really wobbly today...swaying and stumbling. I'm glad he got to see her at her worst with that. She is eating alfalfa and won't eat anything else. He does not think she is suffering...but she is confused.
