        Well the vet says no more meds it is upsetting his stomache.  Also that the med is not working.  It did the first week but not anymore.

        She wants to do another biopsy.   Well.  I am going to take him off berries til October and see.  The vet says it could be an allergy.  But why is the bottom lip the only thing affected.  Also the prednisone should have cleared it up.  But to try it and see.

        If it isnt’ cleared up by Oct I am going to order the technocare and try that for 3 days and see.  If not I will wait til jan to have an other biopsy.  She will send it to a pathologist.

        Cotton will be so happy about not having meds for a while.   His appetite was back this morning.

        She doesn’t think it hurt him that thing on his lip cuz he was eating good and active. Guess he may just have this funny looking thing on his lip.

            Yes thank you it is frustrating.   HE has been medicated for 3 months now and I think it is starting to depress him.  Well in the past week it seems to have depressed him.

            I took him off blueberries b4 but i guess not for long enuf.  Else he is stuck this way. Poor guy.

                Oh…poor cotton! You and your vet have done so much to try and get to the bottom of this mystery. Watch after all of this, if it ends up being something as simple as a blueberry allergy. Wouldn’t that be something?! Hang in their bunnytowne. Funny-lipped Cotton is lucky to have you.

                  thank you

                  His vet I called today and is ok I do post dated checks.  She wants to do this in 3 weeks.   I am going to try techno care wash for 3 days to see what happens.  then a week after that if it didn’t work we will do the biopsy

                  YEs all those meds it is depressing.  Poor Boo.

                  He was hiding this morning not sure what was going to happen today.  I was gone all day and he did eat some pellets this morning.  I petted him when I got home and he ate some hay.

                  IN a few days he will be ok again.  Poor thing never knowing when he is going to get medicated. 

                  The vet agreed he needed a break.  So a 3-4 week break.  Except for the technocare

                  I don’t know what Esther thinks.  I am going to have to email her and let her know.  It might not be a rodent ulcer.  Maybe is the papiloma.  

                  Or as Dana Krempels said some microorganisms that are antibiotic resistant.  Yeah another biopsy poor guy.

                      I am going to try to post some old and recent pics for comparison.   I took some today.  I kicked so hard he opened his lip up and it bled a little.  He just knew I was gona do something bad to him.

                      Well between Cotton and this computer we are all going to be in the nuthouse.  Ahhh lets see if it works today.
