6greyhounds Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 At 3:10 am this morning EZ had another seizure so he did not make 3 months seizure free. This one did not last as long as his other seizures and only last about 30 seconds. Praying now that he does not cluster.

6greyhounds Posted June 29, 2010 Author Share Posted June 29, 2010 Thank you so far so good no cluster. At least was a very mild one compared to his other seizures and shorter in duration. Just wish they would go away for good. He is on 2 grain phenobarbital 2xday and 500mg of KBr 1 x day and medication for hypothyroidism 2 x day. BTW I get me meds from the same pharmacy that has the breakthough in the corn cream and she is much cheaper than CosCo and WalMart and does mail orders. My KBr capsules 4$49/100 and phenobarbital is under $9.00 for 180. His thyroid meds I was paying $8.00 for 60 but she is giving me 100 for $10. No matter what meds you need for your pups check her prices.

6greyhounds Posted June 29, 2010 Author Share Posted June 29, 2010 Thanks - spoke to his regular vet and his neurologist - no change in medications as it was a mild one - call if he has another one - regular appointment with his neurologist is for October when he will have his blood work done to check levels of phenobarbital and KBr Quote It is better to have loved and lostThan never to have loved at allMissing my Big Blue eyed Bear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6greyhounds Posted June 29, 2010 Author Share Posted June 29, 2010 Just had another call from EZ's neurologist he said all his blood work was good (I knew that) not to worry but if he seizes again to give him an extra 2 grains of phenobarbital and to call him or the office. He is going to call me in the morning at work to check on him again. Almost 3 months without a seizure is okay. Yes its okay but not for mom as you feel so helpless whem they are having them Quote It is better to have loved and lostThan never to have loved at allMissing my Big Blue eyed Bear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest LindsaySF Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 Sorry to hear about the seizure, but 3 months is pretty good! I hope he doesn't cluster. (Do you give extra pheno after a seizure? I do for Sophie to prevent clustering). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

6greyhounds Posted June 30, 2010 Author Share Posted June 30, 2010 Thank DOG he did not cluster and I did give him a dose of 2 grains of phenobarbital. I did not tell his neuro doctor but when he called this afternoon he did tell me if he seizes again to give him a dose of 2 grains and to call him. I also called his regular vet to report this latest seizure. His neuro vet asked me a few questions: Anything new, new pets, bright light, sudden noise, new food. Told him no but I forgot to mention those idiots were not shooting off fireworks last night. I can use ice on him but only if he is over heated after he comes out of the seizure.
