Yes Nemo is on Viagra..see Nemo’s heart is not the issue the Cardiologist said his heart is fine..the issue is his lungs..no one ever told us anything was ever wrong with his lungs..he had no issues(Other than a trachea collapse which is totally normal in Poms) then BOOM all of a sudden April 1st this started..first they thought it was congestive heart failure(His lungs/heart was full of fluid) they put him on Vetmadine..and he never got fluid again..then a few days later he started when he would get really excited he would get very winded..so the Cardiologist did a pulmonary pressure test on him which came back positive..he didnt even think he had it til he tested him..he was put on Viagra which does help..he does MUCH better in warmer weather..today he went for a nice 20 min walk, didnt even want to come back had so much fun and didnt have to sit once..so this whole thing is really confusing
