Hello. Jaan may be having a reaction to the injection he got, but without knowing what was given & why ( what mineral was low & how was this diagnosed as mineral imbalances are very rare if a pet is fed a balanced diet ) it is impossible to say what is actually going on. I would contact the veterinarian who gave the injection & explain that Jaan is having an adverse reaction to it. They hopefully will want to take another look quickly in case this is some kind of anaphylactic reaction. I hope Jaan is doing well soon. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
