I recently got a dog named Nova, who is about 4-5 years old and spayed. She has a history of skin issues, previously diagnosed as allergies, but I suspect it might be mites or mange. She has been treated with Apoquel, steroids, and antibiotics, but the condition persists. She has an odor, swollen paws, and ear infections. Her skin is very dry, and she has areas of hair loss. What could be causing these issues, and what immediate steps can I take to provide relief?

My dog, Puff, was diagnosed with ketoacidosis diabetes on 9/29/21. I started giving her insulin, and on 10/1, the vet put a FreeStyle Libre on her. On 10/11, they checked her glucose and adjusted the insulin dose. On 10/25, they only checked her glucose with the FreeStyle Libre and did not provide any information about her condition. I think she is going blind. What should I do next?
