Stevie not improving

So Stevie, the cat with the auto immune disease which affects his skin, had his steroid top up injection today.  His skin was quite broken out so we are going to go with monthly injections from now on rather than every six weeks.  The maritime pine bark he's been on for the past few weeks hasn't made any significant improvement in his skin and so we're discontinuing it.  

But we're not giving up.  This is going to be trail and error.  Good old Cod Liver Oil has been recommended as something which helps calm the immune system so we've started this evening and lets hope it works, it would be so great if the steroid injections could be decreased at the very least and his skin cleared up. Here's hoping.
