4My2Greys Posted February 18, 2016 Author Share Posted February 18, 2016 Most hounds have a NON-malignant hyperthermic event. Stress induced. True MA is a reaction to the anesthetic gas and is fatal unless dantrolene is given. Once a true MA has been experienced always a MA will be experienced-thankfully, it's very rare. So, chances are if your dog had prior general anesthesia (spay/neuter...) and didn't need dantrolene your dog didn't have a true MA event. Chase's episode if it was rhabdo, which it doesn't seem as likely now, would have been stress induced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4My2Greys Posted February 18, 2016 Author Share Posted February 18, 2016 For those who have asked about him, Chase was a little whiney last night, but I think that was from having had teeth pulled. He's doing well tonight and his appetite has been good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4My2Greys Posted February 28, 2016 Author Share Posted February 28, 2016 Thanks for asking about Chase, Jen. I'm sorry I've taken so long to reply. I think the pain he was exhibiting along his topline was probably related to the suspected LS he has. It just scared me because he hadn't been acting like that prior to going in and I know that is one of the signs of rhabdo and that you need to act quickly if it is.
