Call me rude if you wish. I simply asked a question.
Why? Because of the following things that you posted: Elvis has cluster seizures which means he has usually 3-5 seizure a little as minutes apart and for the length of several days at a time. He seems to be loosing his sense of smell and depth perception or sight in one eye, as well now lets his tongue often hang out of his mouth.
And, then this: Updated no. The last from them was if he wasn't haven't seizures more than one a month, then they really couldn't help
And, finally this: don't normally see dogs unless medication isn't controlling seizures that happen on a regular basis monthly.
The way that I interpret all of that is this: When you went to UC Davis originally the seizures were less than they are now because it says that they don't see dogs unless they have more than one seizure/month that is not controlled by medicine (key words!!). In other words: the specialist would expect that a vet would prescribe medications for a dog that was having seizures. THEN, if the seizures were not controlled, they would consider further testing.
Your dog the way that you describe him, in my opinion, needs medications. I can tell you that if my dog had as many seizures as you are describing for "days at a time" I would be heading straight to the vet without passing go. And I am quite sure my vet would be putting him on meds.
Rude? If you say so. What I can tell you is that you need to take Elvis to a vet sooner rather than later. That is ALL I am going to say. I will be saying prayers for Elvis. |
