It could be so many things. Ellie does have a diagnosed cervical disc problem..along with the rest of her spine being a mess. I will list her symptoms and you can see if anything sounds familar. When the neck went out it started with her just being out of it. She didn't really want to move. Pain when palpating her right front leg. The only pain the vet got was turning head to right. She was fairly alert at vet office but still very slow. Came home with inj of bupranex which totally knocked her out. When any part of her spine flares she sometimes like to lay on her side like a board. She does a lot of playbow stretching. Her ears and tongue get very hot. And when she is laying down..while she is responsive..she looks totally out of it at times. Lts of staring or the like.
Even if it did turn out o be his neck, it is not necessarily serious...although though of course it should be treated as it is.
Guessing your regular vet got copies of xrays and such and is talking to you about how long to wait before the next step?
Tramadol can make some dogs act very odd. It sounds like the wobblies and falling over happend before medicating though. Sleep is good.
