Puppy Strangles? IS that what this sounds like?

Koda got sick about 2.5 months ago. He had droopy puffy eyelids and the under side of his chin began to be a strange gray color and bumpy but no puss. He had swollen lymph nodes in neck and a fever when we took him to the vet. They put him on Antibiotic and prednisone for two weeks with a three day transition off the prednisone. He immediately began to have droopy red eyes again. At the vet, they said he didn't have a long enough time on prednisone. They put him on two weeks, full dose, two weeks quarter dose, two weeks quarter dose every other day. He just finished his dosage about a week ago and is beginning to have red droopy eyes, swollen lymph nodes, and he is also limping and his gait is strange. We are taking him back in the morning to the vet. Has any one else encountered this or have any ideas?
