I...Thanks Jen; like your guy Tilley is doing well. It took her about 5 weeks to get to where she is at today. She is more fragile now but she gets lots of TLC; she is asleep on the couch at the moment waiting for her b-day cake.Sherrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08589104200839188087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6517697125324333905.post-25721613065289534382010-03-13T12:22:06.269-08:002010-03-13T12:22:06.269-08:00Sherri, our dog is 15 and he suffered from this. ...Sherri, our dog is 15 and he suffered from this. It was really scary and I had never heard of it before and thought he was having a stroke. Our vet took one look at his eyes and immediately told us that he will be fine in a while. Fine meaning he will be able to see straight and walk on his own but may have some lingering or lasting effects. Meclizine was what he prescribed for him and it was a coincidence that I was taking it at that time too due to side effects from Lyrica, so we shared my meds!! LOL! He needed help for about a week when going outside. We used a harness to help him steady himself and be able to take care of business in the yard. He is a 60 pound pit mix so carrying him was not really an option! He still has a slight head tilt and, if he tries to move too fast he has a tendency to fall over, but he's doing fine. I hope your dog recovers well and quickly.Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01318573932053655984noreply@blogger.com
