I have a 4 1/2 year old spade female that weighs 2 1/2lbs. She was diagnosed 6 weeks ago with hyperadrenocorticism after taking her to the vet for a green vaginal discharge, an enlarger vulva and slight hair loss.
After her 1st 2cc shot of Lupron I notice a scab on her belly that fell of 2 days later. I noticed a 2nd scab a few days after that and it fell off about 3 days later.
After here 2nd shot I started checking her serveral times during the day. Five days after her 2nd shot I found an ellipse shaped reddened area on her belly. It glistened in the light but didn't seem to be wet. It is not about 9 days after the shot and a scab is forming.
Any help would be grately appreciated for Bella.
