jamngrey Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 Psi (9yrs, on thyroid meds) Has not been wanting to eat (but im sure its the food cause eggs or chicken and rice he scarfs up). I just noticed today while he was laying down his head began to temble. went on for about 5 min. Now all is fine should I be worried or just keep an eye on him?

Burpdog Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 (edited) It bothers me when they don't want to eat the kibble but will eat other food--I wonder if the kibble is bad. Are allergies an issue in your part of the country right now? edited to add: how much thyroid?

Guest Energy11 Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 Hummmm.... Might want to get the thyroid numbers checked again. If his head trembling keeps up, he probably needs to see the vet. I always think seizures when this happens, NOT to say, that is what happened to you. I'd just keep an eye on him and go from there, but, if the thyroid levels haven't been checked recently, I'd get that done anyway. Good luck, love and hugs from here!

RobinM Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 Head tremors? Like this??? Chloe is on thyroid meds for low thyroid. My vet says not to worry unless it lasts more than 3 minutes or so. We immediately give her a full cookie and as she eats it- the tremors stop.

As long as you're going to be at the vets, may as welll get the thyroid re-checked. Good Luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
