Rocky's eye not closing - update Hi, I am taking Rocky back to the vet tomorrow for additional testing. His one eye definitely doesn't close. How he's sleeping is beyond me. The vet now believes it's some sort of facial paralysis. He believes it could be something involved with his ear and he also mentioned Cushings disease. I read about Cushings and it upset me very much. I'll be leaving him most of the day tomorrow for the tests. Has anyone had anything like this happen with their dog? Other than the eye thing he is his usual self.:cry: Erika |
oh wow never heard of this.... hope everything will be okay!!! anyone else know? *bump* |
Sorry to hear that. My Pom has just been diagnosed with Cushings and I agree it is a scary disease. We start treatment this week. I hope they can figure out what is the matter with Rocky. I will keep him in my prayers |
Bell's Palsy could be another sign for facial paralysis. I know someone that had that. |
I haven't heard of this, but could he give him a muscle relaxent shot first before doing all the expensive tests? Poor little guy. |
At least he is his usual little self. I hope he gets some meds to make him better |
Rocky's eye not closing Thanks for all your support. Patti, how do they diagnose and treat Cushings? |
