Hi and welcome
I am sorry McTavish has SLO.
Prednisolone, in immunosuppressive doses, works very well and can bring SLO into remission, but there are more gentle ways such as using Doxycycline and niacinamide to suppress the immune system, and this method does not carry all the side effects of long term preds.
If you email me at:
cimda@aslog.co.uk I will be able to send you my SLO seminar notes. It are more details about all aspects of SLO than the information that is available here.
Also, the use of prednsiolone can inhibit healing and perhaps this is why one paw is not healing well. It also leaves the patient open to all sorts of infections, because the immune system is suppressed. So this may be another reason why the skin on this foot is not healing.
If you would like the notes, please email me and I will send them to you.
Jo
