Avatar f tn His name was Diesel and he would have been 2 yrs old new years. On Saturday I witnessed him have a seizure- it seemed mild because he still stood but his front leg, face, and neck began to stiffen and he salivated a lot. He had 7 episodes in a matter of hours. I took him to the Er vet and she kept him for monitoring and gave him an injection of valium. He did well overnight and had one seizure the next morning, same situation.
Avatar f tn Oh my gosh, I'm so sorry that your guy had a seizure plus , right? You must be beside yourself with the stress of it all. Please send me a message if you feel like talking. I'm praying for you both to rise above this new challenge. I guess maybe you take a camera video of your husband with these things starting to happen with his alcoholism, for him to be able to see the reality of his abusing alcohol. I wish I had of had a way to see myself, when I was abusing alcohol.
Avatar f tn My very healthy 3 year olds son recently had a grand mal seizure and is now having drop seizures. His MRI showed a cerebellar tonsillar ectopia and adenoid and tonsil enlargement. Does anyone know if this combination could cause a seizure? Or whether the cerebellar tonsillar ectopia alone could cause a seizure? Thanks!!
167 tn?1374173817 sometimes it feels like she is having a seizure!!!! she like vibrates or something wierd like that! other times she can get the hiccups those last minutes as opposed to a few seconds that the fast moving vibratoin thing does.. they do pretend breathe at this point.. but i cant ever feel that .... whooo we are almost there!
Avatar f tn Today however something odd happened. I was watching a movie when my little guy starts licking everything under the sun. This is not a normal behaviour. He isn't responding to anything, he doesn't seem to be aware of his surroundings, he's just going around the room licking the floor, furniture and what ever else he can find. I pick him up and his heart is racing a mile a minute.
Avatar m tn I smoked it again then I felt like I was having a seizure not as bad as the seizure I had with the K2 but my whole left side of my body went numb and I had a burning smell in my nose. I felt confused. Since then I have not smoked ANYTHING at all. And all this was about a month ago. About two weeks ago I had a 3 day EEG and an MRI done and both came back NORMAL amazingly. But since I smoked the Marijuana last month I have had a numb feeling all over my left side of my body.
Avatar f tn I have several MRI & CT that show I have bulging disc. On the day I had the seizure they did a CT ANGIOGRAM HEAD NECH W CONTRAST. The radiologist did an addendum that states: Straightening of the normal lordotic curvature of the cervical spine may indicate positioning of the paraspinal muscle spasm. There is mild intravertebral disc space narrowing at C5-6 with associated endplate osteophytosis. There is no fracture or listhesis. There is no bony foraminal narrowing.
Avatar f tn The vet said she had an epileptic seizure and gave her some Valium for me to give her if she has another seizure. All has been well until tonight(10-13-08). I was reading on the net that dogs do not have epilepsy, it is strictly a human condition. I want to believe my vet but.... Will you please explain to me what causes seizures in dogs and what I can di to prevent it?
Avatar f tn There are some that involve staring off and only last a minute or two. Some involved stiffening of the body only. Google seizure types. The only way to tell if it is a true seizures is having an eeg within 24 hours of the seizure, it will show abnormal brain activity. My brothers seizures always show in the right temporal lobe of the brain. His are controlled now with antiseizure meds. If you have seizures pregnancy can make them worse. You need to see a neurologist for proper diagnosis.
Avatar f tn I stopped taking xanax suddenly several years ago and had a seizure. After having it I went home and slept and when I woke up I had no memory of it until the person that was with me when I had it asked me why I didn't tell him I had seizures, then it all came back to me. I had not been drinking so it was not a black out. I still wonder to this day if it is normal to forget such a major thing??
Avatar m tn Last monday, my nine year old shih tzu, Stitch, had a seizure. First time ever. We took him to the local vet, they did blood work and it only showed that his liver enzymes were higher than normal. Other than that, nothing else showed up. The vet put him on prednisone, a liver pill and an antibiotic, just in case some kind of infection was going on. The first day he didnt eat much, but has steadily eat better and drank.
Avatar m tn Sounds more like a minor seizure to me. They should see a neurologist first before any other doctor.
Avatar f tn The yelping before hand might make you wonder if there is something hurting him that could be causing the seizure, something inside him that the approaching seizure triggers causing him pain, or if it just his way of responding to the approaching seizure? In Idiopathic Epilepsy the vocalizations prior to the seizure are said to be involuntary and not painful. http://www.canine-epilepsy-guardian-angels.com/CanineEpil.htm The drinking afterward could possibly be diabetic related.
Avatar f tn We believe he had a seizure Thursday morning. I woke to him crying. All signs pointed to a seizure, he was stiff and scared and licking his mouth like crazy, typical signs in the past for a seizure. He was sore all day, but was ok. Friday he was crying and could not get comfortable. We could not tell where the pain was coming from, it didn't appear to be typical hip pain. Saturday was awful, he cried and cried and could not get him to relax.
419158 tn?1316571604 I think my 4 month old had a seizure tonite. He is fine now or eles I would be at the hospital. I plan on making him an appointment tomarrow........... But my question is for mothers who have had childrenn with seizures. What are the signs and symptoms?? MY son started crying kinda funny, I dont how eles to explain it except that it was like he couldnt cry, when I picked him up he got jerky in my arms and got stiff. He started foaming at the mouth, kinda like a rabitt dog. The whole time crying.
Avatar m tn I have a son who is 5 months old, had seizure 3rd day after he born. Then he was in ICU for a month. After that, he was advised to take phenobarbitone. But since seizure is not controlld, neurologist suggested to take Levipil along with that. It decreased to a level, but not completely controlled. So he advised us to take EEG and result was abnormal. He said, my son have too much electrical charge in brain which is affecting brain, so there will developmental delays.
Avatar f tn my little guy(51,2yrs old) had very large lasting a long time early Saturday morning, unfortunately I wasn't home when it started. I took him to the vets at 7am because he continued to seize. they put him in light weight coma for lack of a better word. He had a very rough time waking up from the drugs, and continues to have small seizures, now that the vet has left for the holiday I cant ask him about this circling he is doing, so far its been 46 minutes.
1127591 tn?1265254911 My first recommendation is to go back on the phenobarb. Anti-seizure drugs like this are meant to be "titrated" in other words, we give enough to stop the seizures, then begin to back off the dose to find a lighter dose that will allow the dog to have a pretty normal personality but not have seizures. Does not sound like this was done. I would highly recommend it. Also, many times anti-seizure drugs are given in combination.
Avatar f tn Eventually settled down. A week ago he had another seizure at home. It was awful. Thrashing, convulsing, drooling, urinating, whining. Lasted at least 5 minutes. Then he tried to get up, stumbled and fell into walls, etc. When he was able, he began pacing all around the house very agitated and fearful. He finally, after about an hour, fell asleep from exhaustion and so did we. The vet put him on phenobarbital 64.8 mg, 1/2 tablet twice a day.
570306 tn?1222713377 t urinated or deficated in either seizure. Just the shaking, stiff legs, and disorientation. The concern for this latest seizure is that it lasted about 5-6 minutes. When he comes out of it he is scared, panting, and very clingy. He was very tired and clingy that day, but the odd thing occurred the next night. When it was time for bed he could not sleep. He slept for about 1 hour and awoke at 12:45 am.
Avatar f tn I have done really well until last week when I had major seizure and woke up in emergency. Nurses checked the baby's heart rate and gave me the all clear. Does anyone know if there are other things I should look out for to make sure no harm was had to my little guy?
Avatar m tn my parents had been to the vet and when I got home I sat with him while he suffered 4 more seizures I decided that I could not see him suffer and we went to vet and tio got the jag to sleep as u can imagine has been upsetting. my question is I found out when he took the first seizure When I was home with himhe struggled to do a poo outside and it looked strange.
Avatar m tn I don't think people who have a seizure remember the seizure, but he definitely had something. Maybe it's a thyroid problem. He needs to be seen, but an ER is the slowest, most expensive and least efficient way to do it.
Avatar m tn It does still fit the description of a seizure. Not all seizures involve paddling, slobbering and loss of bladder control. Those are basically what are considered to be grand mal seizures. Petite mal seizures can be anything from a twitching of the head to a state of catatonia for a brief time, which sounds more or less like what your girl had. Please let us know what the vet says when you do get to take her in. Good luck to you!
