CIMDA

I've recently gone back to the vet with my weim daisy and asked for the results from
The lab for when she had biopsys and for them to explain every detail and suprise suprise it was stated on the results by a skin specialist that it is pemphigus he reckons it must have been re analyzed and added at a later date!

I just wanted to know of any non steroid medicine anyone might have been recommended for
Their dogs or of any medication they know of works that isn't so harsh on the dogs organs and not so much of a strain on her body.  So what they offer me I'll know what it might be or I can ask for the best medication!

Thanks guys ,

Katie

Thank you all so much for your help! Will be taking her back to the vet and asking for a referal to a specialist! They didn't even tell me what auto immune disease she had been diagnosed with I've read up on things myself and her symptoms seem to match pemphigus, after she had been diagnosed they basically have me 3 months worth of steroids and to later the dosage as I see fit! Which I was not happy about. She started off on 2 tablets a day and has been cut down to one tablet a day but half in morning and half in evening the steroid they prescribed is called prednidale one tablet is 25 mg, and if I try to cut it down to half a day her skin gets worse and she seems to be more irritated  and I've  noticed her breathing is more laboured so obviously I want to find things to help her before she does start getting Ill in herself

Forgot to mention that lumps appeared all over her body down her legs over her nose and that's whee the bald patches still are

Hi I've just joined this forum as I'm looking for some help on my weimeraner 
She's 6 years old and recently been diagnosed with auto immune disorder and they said that her
Body is attacking her skin, it started the end of January and started as small lumps under her skin and lumps on and around her ears, then gradually got worse she ended up loosing fur and the lumps turned into scabs, for months the vets didn't know what was wrong with her as she was fine in herself,
Now  7 1/2 months on she still has bald patches all over hair isn't growing back, still got scabs on elbows wich still look quite sore, has been on steroids for about  7 months I'm just wondering is there anything else I can give her as  I've been told by my vet that the steroids will shorten her life span and all they seem to be doing is stopping her being so irritated rather than healing her skin, and the vet basically said there's nothing else she can do other than take steroids and adjust the dosage, if anyone has founds anything that will help please let me know willing to try homeopathy

Thanks
