    Neurologist appointment this afternoon

    So my newest addition to the gang has a neurologist appointment this afternoon. I think that he has Manx Syndrome, but this will hopefully give me a diagnosis either way.

    Please keep your paws (and fingers) crossed for him. Any prayers would be appreciated.

    Prayers and warm wishes that all goes well with the neurologist.

    Just got back and yes we got a lot of clarity. It seems that he suffered some type of trauma when he was a young kitten and a number of his vertebrae have fused together. But we are going to try Bethanechol for the incontinence. Once that is stabilized we are then going to try to see if phenobarbital will work for his seizures. So all things considered this at least gives me a few treatment options and the prayers must have been working

    Hey, that helps, thank goodness you went to them. Hope the new meds help, and at least now he is where he will never have to worry about such trauma ever happening again!

    Give him a kiss on the top of his head for me, will you, Cheryl?
