Hi Everyone,

My babygirl's head between her ears is always very warm to the touch. I brought it up to my vet several months ago, and she said it was nothing to worry about. Does anyone else have this problem???

I started to think about her head being hot all the time, and wonder if this was a sign of something else. She had two seizures yesterday within a 10 minute time frame. ER Vet ruled out everything but epilepsy or a brain tumor. All of her blood work was normal - a few things were elevated, but he said it was effects from the seizure, not causes of the seizure. I also requested a bile test for fear of a liver shunt, and it turned up negative. This isn't her first episode, but the first time it has happened twice in one day, let alone so close together.

Any advice is greatly appreciated

Amber
