Our regular Vet and the Neurologist were both unavailable due to the holiday weekend. We have so many questions and no one to really consult with except with the ER vet, who is so busy that he really does not have the time to coddle us. I really need some coddling right now too.
We have added 3 Zonisamide 3 times a day. Spike is wiped out. He has been asleep almost all day. I could not take being at home any longer and went did a little retail therapy. I bought a new couch and ton of new Christmas decorations.
We had plans to get together with some friends tonight, but had to cancel when Spike had a 20 second focal seizure. We called the ER Vet and he said that he not really concerned about focal seizures with most dogs, but Spike is not most dogs. The focal seizure just made us even more nervous.
I read a bunch of studies about Zonisamide and it does appear to be effective for many drug resistant dogs. Crossing my fingers that Spike is one of those dogs.
