I would be asking for brain/skull MRI & spinal tap ASAP as there are things that our babies can get from over vaccinating that have these symptoms.

yorkienani · 03-20-2012, 12:51 PM

We have called Miss State and they have not called us back. It is only 80 miles from our home, so we are hoping they will call and we can get her there as soon as possible. They said they only take patients on Monday and Wed. We are so frustrated because we think the faster she is seen the better she will be.

We need prayers please!!!!

We have Dessa an appt. for early next week to see the neurology doctor at Mississippi State. We're praying she is going to be okay. She is better than she was on Friday.

When we took Zhoie to NCSU vet school, we went in through the E.R. and then the next morning, she was sent on over to the Neuro Dept. It's a thought, check to see if you can go in that way. We didn't have time to wait for a neuro appointment and all that.

Oh, and neur did several tests of their own before even considering disc surgery, which included a spinal tap and she did just fine. Zhoie has surgery on Dec 1st for C1-C2 stablization and she is wonderful now!

Thank you. That sounds like a great idea. We want to get Dessa checked out as soon as possible!!! Zhoie is BEAUTIFUL!!!!

Our baby girl has her appt. at MSU on Monday at 10:30 am. She will be seeing the neurologist there. She is feeling better than she did a few days ago, but her left side is still not working right. We have no idea what to expect. We know something is going on and it appears to be neurology related. We're praying Dessa will be okay!!! She is our baby girl and we love her with ALL our hearts!!!

So glad to hear you have a Neuro appt & I will be Praying for Miss Dessa.

Sending prayers for your little Dessa. ♥ Hope the appt with the neuro goes well and she gets on the road to recovery with their help. You should mention to them the vaccines she had a week prior to the onset of her symptoms

Thanks for the prayers!!! We feel like they're working!!! Dessa is still limping, but it's mainly her back left leg. Her from paw was turned under kinda drawn up, but she is using it and it doesn't seem to be bothering her. We are counting down the days until we get to MSU. We will be mentioning the vaccinations. I still just think they play a role in all of this. Please keep the prayers coming!!!

I was going to post about Georgie and saw your post. Georgie has the same surgery as Zhoie and is doing great. The symptoms seem very similar to Dessa's. When they said neurological my mind went all over the place not realizing that it means the signals from his brain were basically not conecting to his legs and paws so he would be thinking his feet were moving but they weren't and he fell over. The neurologist showed us before the surgery how he basically walked on his knuckes like his paws wouldn't flip over to walking normally. I am so glad you are taking her to a neurologist they are amazing doctors for our furbabies. Please keep us posted on sweet Dessa. Sending yorkie kisses her way from Georgie.

Your devotion and willingness to get her the best care is so heartening to see. Oh that all Yorkies had such loving and caring owners. So glad she will be seen at the college very soon and here is hoping the news is very encouraging. Sounds like she is already doing some better so maybe her body is starting to try its comback. Did they think this was an autoimmune reaction to the shots on her nerves and muscles at your current vet's?
