How can I ever thank you enough for posting these links?!?!? While Sandy's condition doesn't sound as severe as the dogs mentioned in the articles, she does have the same symptoms. I wonder if maybe because she is a beagle mix, her symptoms won't be as severe?? Maybe? Maybe not!Originally Posted by frankykeno
She went to the vet first thing this morning where they gave her IV fluids, two injections and meds to take home. Already she is feeling better and back to her bright-eyed, bushy tail self. Hopefully it will last at least another 6 months before symptoms return. But, with the links you provided I feel that there is hope that we can win this battle so she never feels like she did last night.
I was told that the vet is still baffled as to what is going on so she wants to do a tick panel and immune panel to hopefully find out what is going on. But, now that I've printed up the articles (since they don't have email) and will be dropping them off at the office on Monday morning they have something to go by or at least a new avenue to explore instead of guessing and doing tests that have proved nothing in the past.
I can't tell you how excited I am! I mean, I'm not excited that she may have this Beagle Pain Syndrom but I'm excited that we have something to go on. I'm thrilled that there may be an end in sight to the poor girls suffering!
Thank you Joanna for taking the time to post these links and thank you to the others for your helping in getting her through the night! I'll post an update on her progress!
