Default seizures

I've been reading your post and I have to tell you, have an acid bile test done.

My little guy was diagnosed with MVD a little over a month ago. We suspected he had a prior seizure - it was the middle of the night also in bed and it came and went quickly I honestly couldn't tell what was going on. When it happened again, it was obvious and he was having clusters of seizures. I rushed him to an emergency vet. (Of course it was late on a weekend and my vet was closed.) They put him on the pheno without any tests and they said it was epilepsy. I took him straight to a hospital and it was confirmed MVD (microvascular disorder) after 2 days in ICU and the acid bile test results.

He is now on hills l/d, pot. bromide and two other drugs. I supplement his diet with other veggies and NO additional protein. Thank god he is doing well so far! Also thanks to Yorkieluv for her advise after my frantic posts.

Good luck, I hope everything works out. Seizures are so scary.
