Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. I'm sorry to hear about Belle's diagnosis. The upper respiratory signs are likely from stress after the Vet visit Friday. The most common cause is from a virus. Also her immune system is likely poor due to her condition. Since you are going back Monday have the Vet check her and see if she needs antibiotics. Good luck with everything.
