Hi, just saw your post or would have responded sooner. Our Yogi had encephalitis last year, at 11 months old. He presented with stumbling, falling crying and lethargic. Spent one night at a 24 hour emergency vet who thought he had a liver shunt. Next day my vet sent us to a specialty hospital, being treated by a neurologist and he spent a few nights there. Had a spinal tap and a brain MRI to be diagnosed. A few meds including a steroid for 4 months, tapered off and now he is doing great. It's very scary but they can make a full recovery! Hope your baby does as well as Yogi did! Let me know if I can be of any help! Good luck! |
