PT prayers requested please.

[Daisy and Delilah]

I'll keep sending thoughts and prayers. Feel better, sweetheart!!

It sounds like you are educating yourself well and trying to find the root cause of everything, and it seems like you are heading in the right direction. I hope things continue to look up, and she starts to act more like herself with these changes. Keep us updated....werent you going to school for Vet Tech, or was that someone else?

[GoldenRetrLuver]

Thanks both of you. She started the other meds yesterday and so far, so good. She absolutely hates taking it (it's in liquid form so we have to squirt it into her mouth) but she's happy with the treat that comes after that.

Miranda, yes that was me. I'm a pre-vet major. Applying for vet school probably within the next year or so!

Ah, the joys of medicating reluctant animals. At least she likes the treat that follows! Any chance you have a compounding pharmacy handy that could make it yummier - like liver-flavored or something?

Prayers still being said for your pretty girl.

Miranda, yes that was me. I'm a pre-vet major. Applying for vet school probably within the next year or so!

Well i am very glad that she is doing better, and I don't blame her!! i hate taking meds!

So what is a pre-vet major? Are you going to be a vet or a vet tech? because I am going to go to school for Vet Tech this fall (after we get a house and get settled a bit more- doing too many big changes does not work well for me )

Was just checking in for an update. Glad to hear that so far so good. I can commiserate with pups that are hard to give meds. With Tommy or Raven I can usually hide it in some food and they'll take it easily. Tasha is another story . She'll dissect the food to avoid the med. And if you try to give it to her manually she turns into clamp-jaw. Keep getting better Molly!

Sorry to hear about the seizures! Thyroid and seizures pretty much go hand in hand unfortunatly. I hear about them all too often since they're so common in Belgians.
Hopefully Molly adjusts to the meds and her seizures go away! With the correct dosage, the seizures should go away (unless it is not the thyroid that is causing the seizures, but at her age it's not likely to be genetic epilepsy).

[GoldenRetrLuver]

Thanks again guys. She's been on both meds (for thyroid and seizures) for a few days now and no seizures so far. Looking good!

However, they really do weaken her hind legs. This was her last day of the loading dose to get the drug level up so from here on out we'll just be giving it to her to manage it.

[Freedom]

So the seizures are a part of the thyroid problem, NOT the thyroid medicine.

Poor Molli, going through all this and not understanding what is happening to her! Please give her some hugs from me.

What a relief for you, to have the seizures behind her. That must be so scary, seeing your pup go through that and not being able to do anything.

Many prayers for Molly - may she get through this and have nothing but great test results. I know how it is to worry about your pet - I am going through that right now with our Scruff. Good luck and please keep us posted.
