Thanks everyone and thank you Aimee for updating for me :) I felt bad knowing people were waiting to hear the outcome and I just couldn't get to the computer. I can read along with my phone and can respond with short answers but my thumbs can only type so fast :lol

 

If I had been gone yesterday and hadn't seen what happened and then saw her today I wouldn have thought nothing was wrong. She totally looks back to normal except the right back leg that sort of high steps like it's numb and she is unsure of where it should go.

 

Like Aimee said, the MRI was inconclusive. The neurologist said he wish everyone had as pretty of an MRI :lol He is leaning toward and FCE episode more than a vestibular incident because of how fast she responded to the steroid shot. He wants me to still be guarded with her but he feels confident in saying that it was FCE at this point. He said we could start a round of steroids and antibiotics just to cover anything and everything but that if it was his dog that he would just cover with ABX for 10 days (cuz it can't hurt) and just take a "wait and see" approach.

 

I really appreciate the support and well wishes. Many of you know that Isis is my first grey. She is my "heart" dog. I love her so much. I love all my dogs but Isis and I just have a connection and this, well this scared the crap out of me. I'm not ready to lose her yet and today she showed me that she isn't ready to leave yet either. :)

Tremendous news for you and Isis! I hope she continues to improve so that her back, right foot feels normal to her again.

This smiley :D is not smiling big enough to convey how happy I am that Isis has improved so much. This was the first place I came as soon as I got home from class, since there wasn't an update before I had to leave.
