| Raced to the Vet! I was so scared... My baby Lola had a seizure and I just about had a heart attack...she is ok. I thought she broke something and couldn't get up. She was on her back wiggling like she was trying to flip back over. I was so upset, I knew it was serious so I scooped her up in a blanket and raced to my doctor. I had no idea at all if they would be open but God was smiling on us because this is one of the two late nights they are open each week. By the time I got to the Vet...she was calming down but frightened, salivating and loopy. She perked up rather quick. They did X-rays and blood work to rule out spinal issues, low sugar, toxins and liver issues, they all checked out fine...which left seizure. Sometimes a dog can have one seizure and never ever have another...we will just have to wait and see. If it becomes chronic and frequent we will have to put her on preventative meds but right now we are going to wait and see. |

| How scary. I am glad her blood work is all fine. I pray she never has another one, they are so very scary. I'm glad she is sleeping and getting some rest. Prayers going out that will stay fine Lola.

| You poor thing! And little Lola My Max has been having seizures since 10 weeks old. He was diagnosed with idiopathic epilepsy. He's been taking phenobarbital since and has been doing exceptionally well. I know how scary it is. If you want to vet or chat feel free to PM me. It's very possible that this will be her only seizure. She needs rest now. The seizure activity probably made her very tired.

| Wow, how scary! Hopefully she never has another one. Glad to hear all of her other tests came back good. I'll keep you all in my thoughts and prayers that little Ms. Lola never has another seizure again.
