Hi,
My baby started in Jan. with focal seizures. She went a month apart...then had a couple within 2 weeks. Her vet put her on phenobarbital. In a 6 week period she started throwing up. She could not even keep water
down. Phenobarbital messed up her liver that quickly. Along with milk thistle and baby food she is recovering. She has started back eating food again and holding it down. She has had only 1 focal seizure since she stopped med.
