Well, we didn't do a blood test. Friday's was such an odd
occurence that the vet (not his regular) felt that it wouldn't
show anything.

..........hmmmmmmm, well, I suppose that could be true. Contrary as I am
though I might have wanted one anyway. Always good to have a recent
baseline bloodwork.

.........And of course one worries about the episodes one might not have
seen. Let's hope watching amounts to nothing.

Luckily, I'm in a position where I'm mostly with my dogs 24/7.
Plus, unfortunately, I'm experienced enough to recognise all
sorts of after-effects.

One of her first concerns was vestibular syndrome.

Really? My experience with vestibular syndrome doesn't
include anything like what you described. But I guess
that's the "syndrome" part - a collection of differing
symptoms.

The vet, I think, was going through a mental checklist,
especially after I mentioned that I didn't actually observe a
seizure, just the disorientation and Bambi-on-ice co-ordination.
After I described the symptoms, she asked "Did you notice if the
eyes...." - not liking to waste time, I said that I didn't think
it was vestibular syndrome, for the reasons mentioned in my
previous post.

I'm trying to make contact with Friday's rescue to see if I can
trace his siblings. He was born into rescue, so it should be
possible, but 5.5 year old records may not be accessible.

Ah. I can see where she was going with it then.

That would/could be interesting. Just in case. But you may never know.

I understand that you're trying to dot all the i's and cross all the t's -
just in case. I'm sure I'd be doing the same.

Still hoping that there's nothing to find nor a further reason to search.

Oh, I'm glad to hear that. Sorry for the late response, I'm just catching
up again after being sick myself.
