need help for a sick greyhound

» honda98comcast - sick greyhound

My greyhound Whitney is 9 yrs old and is exhibiting serious signs of some unknown illness. After having dental extractions, she developed severe fever (105), severe muscle weakness, was unable to walk, depression,& dehydration and lesions on her butt and thigh areas. she was immediately taken to my
vet , he put her on IV and she was taken to a acute care hospital where they ran all sorts of tests and biopsies, which never resulted in a diagnosis. After being in the hospital for 2 days she developed severe adema, her left leg swelling 3 times its normal size. We took her home 6 days later and she seemed to be doing well, swelling had gone done and she was eating and playing again a little slower than normal. Now several weeks later , signs of illness are showing again. She has a low temp and blisters and she is licking at her anal area where the skin is raw causing bleeding and the swelling seems to be developing again this time in the other leg. Has anyone out there had any similiar such situation, the vets are totally unaware of what this problem is and I am going crazy. Whitney is not not at all well and I am heartbroken.
