Joey was acting weird Sunday night, there was some shaking and we went to bed early, he just couldn't get comfortable in bed and every few minutes would find a new spot; no vomiting or diarrhea, and food hadn't changed. He walked hunched over, and he was licking his mustache a lot, (I guess this can indicate nausea), but the main symptom was the moving every few minutes. We took him to the vet Monday, and he didn't know what was wrong, he said it sounded like he had pain in his stomach, and we were to continue to give him some Pepcid, 1/4 of a 10mg pill, 2 times a day. Most of his symptoms were gone by the time we got him to the vet, and by Tuesday he was fine. The vet said that some of the things that could cause this would be fire ant bites or scorpion bites, or eating something strange, we really didn't see any bites and don't know what caused it, but when you described her symptoms it reminded me a little of Joey. The Pepcid seemed to help Joey, I gave him his first dose Sunday night before I saw the vet, and it took about a hour before he seem to have some relief, but it took about 5 hours before he settled down and could sleep.
