I am praying for Remy that the neurologist will have more answers and suggestions for you tomorrow.
What kind of symptoms does she have? I can imagine that it is difficult to isolate with everything she has going on. When Max and Teddy were injured, they were reluctant to turn their heads in one direction. The vet and I could also feel the spasm of the muscle from the pain. Max wanted to lie down straight with his head straight too. They were a little reluctant to bend to eat, but not as much as a dog with a disc problem, for instance.
I think it came from whipping their heads around. Teddy's happened while wrestling. I didn't witness when Max's happened, but he is really hard on his neck -- I had to take away his bed underneath my chair because of the way he was bending his neck. Max took about 3 - 4 days to fully recover. He has had a couple of recurrences and bounced back faster.
Maybe with Remy's head tilt (if she is still doing that) she has put more strain on her neck/shoulders?
