Steak's Seizures


Recommended Posts

Guest cristaron

Sending my best wishes possible for you and your boy Beth.

Don't ever second guess yourself or what you're doing. You're

doing all the right things possible.

This seizure thing is just so unpredictable and every dog needs

a different protocol. It will just be a matter of figuring out

what is going to work for Steak and help him.

 

A new day with a different neuro and I'm hoping with all I

have that everything will change now for the better.

 

Hang in there honey, you're a good mama to your boy.

Beth, you're not doing anything wrong. Hopefully, all the other posters' stories have shown you how hard it is to find the best management protocol. You will all be in my thoughts today. :bighug

Prayers for all of you, Beth. I hope a new doctor can help bring Steak's seizures under control.

 

Beth, you are NOT doing anything wrong. It's a hard, hard thing to figure out and get under control. You are doing everything you can to help your boy. Don't second guess or beat yourself up. You are a great mom to your dogs. Just remember that when you are feeling down on yourself. Hugs to all of you !

Oh, doG. This is enough to rip your heart out. I hope you can feel the love and support of GT...............as someone said earlier, you have always been so supportive of everyone else. Please take comfort that you are not alone - many, many are praying for you and Steak; just wish we could be of more help. Please don't beat yourself up - save your strength for Steak - he needs your love, support and strength to pull out of this. Hopefully the new neuro will be able to come up with the right combination for him. Sending prayers.

I have no experience with any of this but I wanted to add that I've been following the thread and like everyone else am full of concern for Steak and you and your family and am sending good thoughts and best wishes. So hoping the new neurologist inspires confidence and trust.
