Guest BiancasMom Posted September 1, 2010 Share Posted September 1, 2010 Sending good thoughts for Rainey. Brain tumors are not typically visible from the "outside" due to the restraints of the skull itself. Do you think her head could just be swollen from banging around during her seizure? There are tumors of the actual bone (skull) that can occur and are more easily removed. I know Phenobarbital can have many side effects and each dog is different so hopefully her behavior is from that and it will go away soon. Feel better soon Rainey.

My blog about grief The reality is that you will grieve forever. You will not get over the loss of a loved one; you will learn to live with it. You will rebuild yourself around the loss you have suffered. You will be whole again but you will never be the same. Nor should you be the same, nor would you want to. ― Elisabeth Kübler-Ross Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

racindog Posted September 1, 2010 Share Posted September 1, 2010 So sorry to hear Rainey had another siezure! She is very very lucky to have a Mom like you to take care of her as you are doing the most important healing of all by loving her so! I will pray that she gets well quick! I believe that she can get well! Don't jump to conclusions-things are not always what they seem to look like. For Rainey: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest snakes Posted September 1, 2010 Share Posted September 1, 2010 We will all be thinking of you here. As to the MRI, follow your gut instinct. We opted out of an MRI here just because it would have made no difference to the treatment options we would have used (ie- I personally would not have done invasive surgery for a tumor). i cna understand the wanting to know exactly what is going on though!

TheFullHouse Posted September 1, 2010 Share Posted September 1, 2010 Oh no! I'm just seeing this. I'm so very sorry. As far as the whining, it may be that she's hungry. When we started Saint on pheno, he whined like crazy until I figured out it was the drug that was making him hungry. We didn't have an MRI done for Emmy because we were pretty confident in the diagnosis and treatment options were very limited in her case. I'm praying for good news for you.

Guest LindsaySF Posted September 1, 2010 Share Posted September 1, 2010 Darn, sorry to hear this. The whining is probably hunger. Pheno gives them the munchies, like someone else said. When Sophie paces and cries she either wants food or needs to go out. She will eat and eat and still keep whining. I feed her until the whining stops, then she's happy. I give a lot of canned vegetables to fill her up so she doesn't get fat. I agree with Energy's post, get some rectal valium on hand just in case you need it. Good luck.
