 Teddy update
First I want to thank everyone was so supportive. You kept my hope alive.
Here is the update.
Tuesday was the illness, he almost died, we were told to wait 24 hours to see if any of the meds worked and to get blood work back.
Wednesday he was doing better so we knew something was working, he was able to eat had elevated WBC.
Thursday had spinal tap done, ruled out liver shunt and protein issue and he made a miraculous turn around and started to eat alot and get energy and the seizures stopped and he was off most meds.
Friday we were told we could take him home as the only test we were really waiting on was the distemper test and he was doing really well.
They still have no idea what happened, why he had the original siezure.
The only test that came back with anything was an elevated WBC so they are thinking that he had an infection in the brain it caused swelling he had a seizure and the meds took 30 some hours to work and relieve pressure on his brain.
He truely is the miracle pup. They thought he might have brain damage, but I am happy to tell you that he is 99% back to himself . They did keep him on polybromide to keep his brain relaxed just in case. They are going to take him off it slowly in about a week or so.
The only issue we have is he is no longer potty trained AT ALL!! and he pees alot, all the time. But its hard to get mad knowing thats all that is wrong.
We do however have a bill of $2300.00 we paid all but $1100.00 and the vet was awesome and is allowing us to pay monthly, so now I just need to hurry and find work to pay it off.
Again thank you everyone for keeping me hopeful, when I transported him to the specialist he as in a full constant seizure and it broke my heart I thought as he lay limp and seizing that he was going to die. It just want his time.
So he is back to attacking his toys, chewing bones and our toes. He doesn't bark though.
Loves socks, can't complain too much.
