Re: Pomeranian with Epilepsy has severe mobility issues - HE

Robin is now worse than ever, can barely walk, so weak and sleeps most of the time. We saw a neuro yesterday and he is very concerned...so now she's scheduled for an MRI to rule out tumors. I am so sad.

Re: Pomeranian with Epilepsy has severe mobility issues - HELP!

Day 2 on the new Kbr and no siezures (fingers crossed). Plus when we got the other Kbr prescription, I called my vet because the colour was different, it was almost clear, where in the past it was a brown colour. Again our vet did call the pharmacy and they said it was the exact same compound, stren...

Re: Pomeranian with Epilepsy has severe mobility issues - HELP!

Thanks everyone for the very helpful information. We just had Robin at the vet 2 weeks ago and our vet said in his opinion she wasn't in any pain, however knowing how well dogs can hide pain, it is possible. I did ask our vet to a thyroid test on Robin as our groomer mentioned that her nose was peel...

Re: Pomeranian with Epilepsy has severe mobility issues - HELP!

Thanks so much for the replies. I am also now thinking that it can't be the meds, as everything that I've read up on medication induced ataxia seems to say that it tapers off once the dog has been on the medications for some time. Also the videos that I have seen of dogs with ataxia don't seem to ap...

Pomeranian with Epilepsy has severe mobility issues - HELP!

Hi there, I have an 8 year old Pomeranian (Robin). Robin was diagnosed with epilepsy about 2 years ago. Her seizures at first were infrequent, so our vet put us on a wait on watch regime. However about a year ago, her seizures became more frequent (several times a month). At that time our vet starte...
