Wow - what a week. Where do I start? 2 weeks ago, Storm (12 yr old chocolate) started gagging at night. I've noticed over the past month or two (maybe more?)...
Hi All, I know that many of our LP dogs also suffer from neurologic problems. So I'm posting this message to give hope to all those suffering. In two weeks, on...
Thanks for all the emails of help and support. For any other Aussie members I have contacted specialists in Melbourne and Brisbane (Charles Kuntz in Melbourne...
Sarah--What a nightmare. I am sorry Storm is having so many problems. LP is often part of a larger neuropathy, including, usually, rear leg weakness, However,...
Well, after much deliberation, I've scheduled Shadow's surgery with Dr. Sadanaga on November 17th. It was a difficult decision to make but one I knew I had to...
3/28/05 These guidelines will be automatically sent to the list every two weeks, so please don't think I'm picking on any one person when they appear. I just...

Abbie reached the 2 week postop mark this past Thursday and Dr. Norris seemed really pleased with her progress. Sutures were removed and she was taken off...
Hi Brenda, Great news about Abbie! So glad she's doing so well. All dogs are different, but Boomer still coughs sometimes - especially after drinking water,...
Lots has happened with Storm over the past 2 weeks. He was originally diagnosed with Degenerative Meylopothy + LP, but his paralysis progressed so quickly to...
My ridgeback Kimba passed away on Fri. evening. We had been away in CO for a week and he and Opus and Aero were at home with the pet sitter. Kimba was ...
Susan--I am so sorry about Kimba. At least your got to see him again when you came home. He had an amazing life and was extremely accomplished. What can I...
This is all extremely scary and disturbing to watch. I am very sorry you are going through all of this. I think you need to continue to manage his pain until...
This is a NIGHTMARE. I am so sorry. I think I wrote to you privately that I had a cat with a brain tumor and her behavior was bizarre. But I didn't have kids...
I agree with Debbie and others that putting Storm thru more diagnostic tests doesn't sound like it would be useful to him. I know, though, that without knowing...
recently my 14 yr lab (aurora)started showing signs of difficulty breathing at night. A large amount of noise on inspiration and expiration--followed by ...
Jan, The only way to know for sure is a scoping--and that should be done by a board-certified surgeon with lots of LP (and LP surgery) experience. Typically,...
Hi Jan - sounds weird to me. It might not hurt to see an internist or surgeon and see if you can get a diagnosis. Boomer's earliest symptoms (don't laugh)...
My name is Kerry Ann and I have been graciously allowed to join your group. My dog, Gabby a 5 year old yellow lab, has megaesophagus, Myasthenia Gravis, and...
Hi Kerry I am sorry you are having so many problems with such a young pup. I think it would be important for you to go to meet with a board certified...
I was wondering if anyone could help me. 2 1/2 years ago we took our black lab from vet to vet trying to figure out why she was panting and seemed so...
YIKES WHAT A HORRIBLE STORY BETTY!!!!!!!!!!!!There are 2 separate issues here. The primary one is how to help ypur baby and the second is to deal with getting...
Betty, I am so sorry to hear that Sig is still having problems. Glad you've decided to join the list again. One thing you might want to do is check the...
Hi Kerry, What a lot of issues you have in such a youngster. My first suggestion would be to join the MegaE list if you're not there already. Since so many...
Hello everyone, I haven't been active on list for a while now but regularly scan my digests to keep up to date. My Nash continues to do well. All those ...
The vet that scoped Sig called today and stated the cultures and biopsies came back with no evidence of cancer (thank God) but irritation and inflamation. He...
That is a horrible story. I would go back to the vet that claimed he did the tieback and show him the Xrays you have now and demand your money back or you...
This is good news. Are they doing anything to treat the irritation and inflammation? I don't know what to say about your Sig's story. It would probably be a...
Excellent news Betty! I'm curious as to why you said she was not able to survive a tieback - she sounds healthy to me - If all the news is good, it might be...
