Sweet Ciara - unfortunately it wasn't a one time only seizure. She had another one last night right before midnight. Pretty much the same duration and intensity as the one on December 18th.
And then again at 10:40 a.m. today, the evil monster struck again less than 11 hours later. I am now waiting to hear back from the vet, but I suspect we will be visiting the neurologist for an evaluation. I had a suspicion all day yesterday that all was not well. She was just "off", only way I can describe it.
Ciara here, I at least got my table spot back, but now Mom is watching me like a hawk. She even put this blankie down because some not-so-nice things happen to me when the seizure hits. I don't remember much about what happened, but Mom and Lightning tell me it was very scary. I hope I am going to be OK.
Woos - Ciara and Mom
Firstly can I say that I am sorry to have been remiss and missed what had happened before. I am so sorry to hear that your sweet girl is not doing good. It must be sorry worrying both to see it happening and not know why. I send virtual hugs to you and I pray that the vet will be able to diagnose and help. xx
ReplyDeleteCiara honey, we are keeping all our paws crossed that you won't have another seizure and that the vet is able to figure out what's causing them and how to fix things. It sounds very scary and we are all very worried.
ReplyDeleteDear Ciara,
ReplyDeleteThe doctor will know how to make you all better. I know this is scary for all of your family. I am sending all the healing thoughts I can .

Oh we are so sorry this is happening to you. I know your momma is going to take real good care of you and take you to a super smart vet to find out what is going on, and how to help stop it. Hugs from us little pugs.

Dear Ciara and the Momster, sorry to hear this issue has hung around. We popped in especially to see how you were doing. I've been dealing with a slight health issue myself (nothing serious, just something that may need to be addressed) and it's triggered my hooman's own issues. Hopefully she can blog about it sometime, I don't really understand what's been going on. Boy are hoomans weird. Anyway, here's hoping the vet has some ideas for you. Oh, and we send hugs to your Momster, we know this must be very difficult for her.

Oh, Ciara. We are so sorry the Monster decided to rear it's ugly head again. I sure hope your vet has a magic potion for you. We still have some of Toby's mighty swords around that he used on his dragons. Let me know if you need one!
ReplyDeleteWe're sending the power of the paw in hopes that it will make Ciara better!!
ReplyDeleteOh noes! We're sorry Ciara is having more seizures and hope the neurologist can find out why. We're sending lots of purrs for her to get well and lots of hugs to you too mom.
ReplyDeleteCiara we have our paws crossed that the S.M. will NOT come back.
ReplyDeleteIt seems that your mom has some GOOD instincts and can sort of SENSE when thingys are not going right. THAT is a GOOD thingy.
It helps her to be prepared to deal with the thingy.
Oh Ciara, we're so sorry that this is happening to you. We hope they can figure out what's wrong and that it's easily fixable. Lots of woofies who have seizures go on medicine and are fine after that.
ReplyDelete(((Hugs)))

Oh dear Ciara I hope you'll be ok too but you must allow Mom and the doctor to check you out so you don't have to go through that seizure stuff again hopefully. You got your table spot back and a nice blankie for cuddling but I know all of us who know you want you BETTER too!! WOO WOO!
ReplyDeleteHugs, Sammy

Thinking of you all, and hoping you get some answers.
ReplyDeleteOh no! Poor Ciara. Sending lots of good thoughts your way.
ReplyDeletePoor sweet Ciara....hopefully some medication will be able to help control it.
ReplyDeleteDear Sweet Ciara - we've been meaning to drop you a note. We used to have a brother (before we started blogging) who had epilepsy. His seizures were very scary to watch, too, but he started taking phenobarbital and BAM - way, way less seizures. Our mom takes pheno, too, and has for MANY years. Very few side effects. Drowsiness is one. Buddy got over it and mom just drinks a lot of coffee!! Please don't be scared. We know you're gonna be OK!
ReplyDeleteYour pals,
Bart, Otto and Ruby
Oh sweet sweet Ciara and momster - I'm so sorry that you're having a rough time. I hope that you get some vet care soon. I've known many dogs (including mine, pre-blogging) who have had their seizures controlled by meds. I hope that can be the case for Ciara too. I am thinking of you.
ReplyDeleteOh Ciara, we are so sorry sweetie. We are sending you purrs and prays. We know you can slay that evil monster.
ReplyDeleteI am so so sad to hear this. I hope the vet will be able to give you some reassurance, although some seizures, from what I learned when JH had one, have no identifiable reason. Regardless, we are sending you tons of wirey kisses and human love and hugs to help relieve a bit of the anxiety.'xxxxx

Sweet Ciara, we are sending lots of pawsitiive thoughts and belly rubs....

The first Greyhound who lived here, before I came along, had epilepsy. Mom says it was really scary when it was happening, and hers were pretty bad, but once she started on the right medicine, it made a lot of difference for her. If we can help any, let us know!
ReplyDeleteBunny
Ciara, you don't look so good. We hope that the docs find something that works for you so you don't have that happen anymore.

Oh no Clara. You take it easy under the table. We are praying the vet can give you something to control the nasties. You and your family are in our thoughts and prayers, rest assured.

Oh Ciara, we are so sorry that you are having those darn seizures. Hopefully they can give you some medicine for them. We had a dog and a pony that had seizures and they took medicine and it did help. We sure send many purrs and the donkeys are crossing their hooves for you.
ReplyDeleteOh dear Ciara, we are so sorry that the seizure monster attacked you again. We hope the docs can find something that works for you so you will feel better.
ReplyDeleteWe keep all our paws and fingers crossed for you!

ReplyDeleteYou poor poor husky you! I am so sorry for all of you that this is happening , I can't imagine how hard it must be as I have never experienced this...
Have you talked to five sibes mom? They know all about canine epilepsy and may be able to help with some tips?
Sending the biggest furriest husky hugs your way!
"Love is being owned by a husky"
I'm so sorry the seizure monster is bothering you! I hope you feel better soon.
ReplyDeleteCiara I hope there is a way to help you. Maybe twe all together can chase that bad seizure-monster away? All my best wishes and crossed paws for you
ReplyDeleteWe're so sorry to hear Ciara had another 2 seizures! Please know that you're both in our prayers. If there is anything we can do to help -- like if you bring her here to KSU for an evaluation -- please don't hesitate to ask. We are only 5 minutes from the vet school.
ReplyDeleteHUGS!

We don't know how we managed to miss the first post about a seizure but we did, so this is the first we hear of it, and we are very concerned about sweet Ciara. All paws and hooves are crossed at this end that the vet will be able to find the right dosage of meds to control this effectively over the long term.
ReplyDeleteWoofs,
Tommy and family
Oh no, Ciara, so sorry we have not been around and just as we were to leave you some belated holiday cheer comment, we read about the scary seizures you have been getting. We got our paws crossed for you sweet Ciara. We pray that the Dr. Vet will make you get better really soon.
ReplyDeleteWe will visit you regularly to check on you.
Sending you lots of healing vibes.

Hi Guys
ReplyDeleteWe are keeping our paws crossed for Ciara we do hope all is well with her now. Oh what a worry we are to our humans.
Licks from Bobby extra lick for Ciara or Phantom and Lightning as well.
Oh NO!!!! I'm SO so sorry this is happening to the beautiful Ciara! I hope the docs find a fix fast!!
ReplyDeleteI've often wondered...what do the other pups do when this is happening to her??
I pray there is some solution. I have a friend who has them and she feels awful for days after!
This makes me so sad! I hate to think of Ciara and you all having to deal with this. You're all in my prayers.
ReplyDeleteOh Ciara. I just wish this wasn't true. We are praying that they can get you some meds to make this never ever happen again.
ReplyDeleteNora
We are so sorry to hear this year isn't starting out on a better note. It is no fun as we get older, both 2-legged and 4-legged, and the body parts don't work the way they used to. Quality of life is what we all strive for for our 4-legged kids. We'd keep Phantom on his meds so he'd be more comfortable and not in pain, even though the side effects are not good. Know there's an entire community out here hoping and praying for brighter news. Sending lots of warm fuzzies your way. Linda, Pepper, and Dublin
ReplyDeleteDear Ciara,
ReplyDeletewe only read this today, for we were very busy the last time! I'm so sorry for you! Mom and I feel with you and your family!
