    If you're already in contact with a vet then there is not much more we can add. You can elevate her temps to the low 90s and keep humidity high to help support the treatment. If the medications are oral then you can request injectables instead for a generally faster effect. Some mucous is to be expected as she recovers...gotta get that excess fluid out somewhere.
