I chickened out on the diazepam(thinking if the ER Vet has to give him Benadryl during the night it might not mix well with the diazepam/Valium) and gave him 2 ml. Children's Benadryl Liquid by mouth at 7:45 pm and put a cold cloth over his pelvic area where he's so red and hot and he's lying in my lap q u i e t 9 minutes later! If he wakes very hyper after a while and his HR is high, we''re ready to go to the ER Vet for help tonight. He's been through enough in this last 24 hours so one way or another, this baby is having a restful night here or at the hospital. Pray that he will stay oout for a while and give his little body a chance to rest. He apparetnly barked all day at the vet and was too amped and excited there to scratch or somehow they just didn't notice it. But he came home tail tucked and the minute I put him down he began wallowing, scratching and rubbing his body and face against the walls and anything. Couldn't be still. Looking at me and whining for help. I so hated to dose him with Benadryl again after last night I was hoping his fatigue would kick in and knock him out but it never did. Finally, I had to act and just get him to the hospital if he gets worse from this after a while. I'm scared silly his heart will race and go into fib or something from that Benadryl since it hyperexcited him last night after the first hour.

Praise God he's still asleep at 8:00 pm! It's worth gold to see Tibbe relaxed and at rest finally. I don't think he could have taken much more of his state of every nerve alerted, excited and itching. He was a mess. But my clothes are laid out and everything read to drive the 7 minuites to the hospital if we have to go.
