Here is a link to one of Sammy's threads. You will see all of the neurological issues he had that he did fairly well with. The thing that got him in the end was a perineal hernia because his bladder kept getting trapped in it and multiple repairs did not help. The neurologists see more of the neuro things than regular vets do....yes, they are rare, but not so rare that they don't know how to treat them! It just is something a regular vet does not see and have the experience handling. I am certain you will get better information from the neurologist regarding after care. I think there are videos of Sammy in that thread somewhere...I will look for them later. If not, I think I have them on You Tube and will post for you to see. The neurologists assured me he was not in pain!

Maybe the thread will give you some hope that after surgery Sprite could do well .. that is IF the neurologist feels that the seizures can be minimized by the surgery. Sammy was a trooper in spite of all of his neuro issues. He was such a joy!
Thinking of you and praying for Sprite...
