And I know my dog and I know that she has never flinched her tail as a reflex when I'm playing with her toes. But they say it was just a reflex.
I asked God this morning for a sign. And that phone call definitely wasn't a good sign. I just need to feel better. I had to sit down so I didn't pass out at the vet's office last night. I can't eat, I can't sleep, I can't concentrate on anything. |
when my friends dog was in the coma they kept her sedated to stop the seizures after that so the meds play a big part - i questioned the sedation for so long as did another specialist - as they weened her off the drugs she slowly came out of it and never had another seizure. My friend called me crying every day saying she just layed there with her tongue hanging out and looked lifeless. She is totally fine now so some dogs react to drugs differently as do humans and it has not been enough time
