i know, i know, i give people benefit of the doubt probably too often, so in this regard i take the 'doing it to prevent harm' line of reasoning.

ic, that's not necessarily a 'fix' of what i wrote.

yeah it was.

and giving drugs willy nilly does do harm. plain and simple. it might not be immediate or readily apparent, but long term? hell yes.

i haven't seen anyone yet post exactly what harm lasix does. and it's not from lack of asking. and having a vet administer-that's 'willy nilly'?

it doesn't matter. it seems that everyone has made up their mind and i tire of the whole discussion. it's why i hesitated on this thread, and pretty much steer clear much of the time anymore when i see something about it on here.
