I'm curious about what testing was done. I hope chest x-rays for the coughing at minimum was done. If the heart looked enlarged (due to heart failure), then an echocardiogram can pinpoint what is wrong specifically with the heart. Different medications can be used to manage various types of heart failure and help with the coughing, but it's concerning if they don't have a specific diagnosis on the heart condition. As far as the seizures, I'm guessing that they've done bloodwork to be able to rule out some metabolic issues, but that doesn't rule out a brain tumor...Originally Posted by SlitherinSisters
She still hasn't heard from the vet last I knew about the test results. They did every test in the book! The bill was insane! I was able to go to the check up with my mom and sis. The vet thinks the cough is heart related, but doesn't know what is causing the seizures. He's had a total of 4 seizures now, last I knewI also found out that there have been four great danes in that town (of only 8,000 people) that died by the age of four, and one was only three! One was wobblers, two were heart related, and I forget what the fourth one was. So sad
I'm sorry to hear that you don't have answers yet. It's hard to know how to treat them if you don't know what's wrong.
