Lemon juice. If you're willing to try anything.

What are some healthy ways to start losing weight without risking starvation mode or extreme food restriction?

• A Fungal infection may be present.

How good do you sing and how do you know this?

I'm assuming no redness or skin irritation bc your vet would have seen that at least.

Fungal /thrush

• A uti infection can have that affect.

Has anyone experienced an out of the body experience, as a child, years before you had ever heard the term or understood the implications?

Internal examination (I honestly think it's internal) and so forth.

You can very gently apply a small amount of canesten cream inside her vagina entrance and vulva however its toxic if she licks a fair amount off so use a rolled up towel for an anti lick collar and even though the lickng makes everything except a cut much worse, please let her lick when you dont understand her issue while you have no relief to offer her until the vet provides you with his/her specific instructions regarding what's going on. At that medicated point, the vet will probably not allow llicking.

Do not put anything prescription topical on her bc what's meant for hoomons can cause a pet’s eyes to bleed.

How did you know you weren't the narc?

Something is wrong.

UTI

Pop a teaspoon of salt in a cup of room temperature water, dunk her in it for a minute skin clean.

Go to your chemist and grab a tube of canesten cream (internal and external) and stop itch (external ONLY). So long as her skin isn't red raw or bleeding, dry the external area, apply the cream, then give her a bone/chew toy/ stick to chew on. The cream plus the distraction helps in most milder situations.

There are many possibilities. Please see a different vet. Inline with the vet's opinion get tests done to find out what's wrong.
