When we first got Baby four years ago at age 2 she had a bad upper respiratory infection - snot, sneezing, snoring, loud sniffly breathing, and reverse sneezing. Cured with less stress, aziathomycin and then Baytril.
Fast forward to a year ago when it started again after we moved house. Started with yellow white snot, same sneezing reverse sneezing etc. It cleared up a bit within a couple weeks and mucus changed to thin occasional clear but we couldn’t get to vet due to COVID so since then she still had daily (other week see below) episodes of other congested stuff... reverse sneezing, louder breathing, sneezing fits, snoring etc.
We got her back to the vet a few months ago and since have tried azithomycin, anti virals, zenequin and now she is on oral predinosolone. But here is the weird thing about it i would like your take on.. its cyclical???. For 4-5 days she is completely fine, 100% normal breathing, no snot nothing. Then over a day or two she goes down hill rapidly and back to reverse sneezing sometimes coughing, sneezing fits etc. Goes on like this for 4-5 days. Then next day fine again back to normal.. repeat.
What is going on? I mean surely an infection or a polyp or damaged nose bones or cancer or indeed any issue etc etc wouldn’t disappear every other week or so? We wondered about something weird triggering an allergy but wouldn’t the steroid prevent symptoms for that? What’s going on?
