 ok, i'll be as concise as possible.Sasquatch, 4yrs old was adopted at 1yr old, almost dead from malnutrition and dehydration.  He was revived to a happy, healthy, loving cat.
 He always has sinus problems, stuffy nose and sneezing that once a yr he gets antibiotics for.
 2 months ago after taking him in for antibiotics and a tapeworm shot, his liver stopped working, he became lethargic and jaundiced.  Not able to afford any extensive vet treatement, we force fed him food and water for 2 weeks after which he appeared to fully recover.  One month after this (one week from writing this)  he stopped eating, became very lethargic, lost three pounds and was very congested.
 we took him to the vet who did blood tests and x-rays and she says all major organs are fine, as are the lungs.  She is a cat specialist.
 
 we are feeding and trying to keep him comfortable.
 his symptoms are:
 lethargy
 sneezing
 heavy, snuffly breathing
 weight loss
 appetite supressed
 103 F temperature
 (tonight started to limp)
 fluid coming from nose
 runny eyes
 
 Can anybody help diagnose this please!  All we can do is feed him and keep him comfortable but we don't want him to suffer.
