Poor June Had 4 Seizures This Morning


Recommended Posts

Our poor fawn had 4 seizures this morning :cry1

No warning, and out of the blue. Never had one before.

 

She is admitted at the vet for 24-48 hours of observation and running tests.

 

She's 8 going on 9 so they don't think it's onset epilepsy.... they said that usually happens by 6.

 

Hopefully they find some sort of cause and/or anti-seizure meds help. If not, we may be looking at a possible MRI.

Just heard from my husband (whom the vet called). Seems she has started developing clots in her lungs which is most likely causing the seizures.

Our vet is recommending transferring her to a higher care facility for this, so he is on his way to pick her up and will be taking her to HOPE for elevated care and plan to treat all this.

 

When I hear more I will let you all know.

 

Thank you all so much for the wishes/prayers/positive vibes.

All checked in at HOPE.

 

She will be seeing the neurologist tomorrow morning and going for an MRI.

 

We said good night to her and she seemed in good spirits... the anti-seizure meds seemed to be working well.

 

Poor baby has been through the ringer today.

No news which is actually good- they said they would call anytime if she had another seizure, so she did not have another one overnight which is good.

Now to wait and hear from the neurologist.

HOPE is one of the best places in the northeast for specialty care. We took our Rottie there for her chemo.

 

Just heard from the neurologist... everything looks completely normal and he flat out said she's a very healthy 8 year old greyhound.

So MRI is next- only way to see what is going on in her tiny little fawn head.

 

Hopefully we hear those results in the next 1-2 hours.
