Did I have a seizure?

Sweet Tart North on Health - Thu, July 24 2008

Now I've gone and got mom all worried. I got spayed on Monday and it's been kind of tough recuperaing from it. Sometimes us scent hounds do have a bit of a hard time especially if we get the regular amount of anesthesia. I have been eating and snuggling but yesterday I was kind of whimpering around. Mom gave me some pain medicine because she thought I had just done too much too soon. Later in the night, I was lying on the couch with mom watching TV. I was asleep but all of a sudden my eyes rolled back in my head and my muzzle started twitching alot and my teeth were kind of chattering. It took me a little bit to wake up but I did although I seemed groggy. Mom says I've done stuff similar to this before but usually it's when I'm in the bed and it's dark so it's hard to see what's going on. Mom thinks it might have been a seizure rather than a bad dream. Does anybody else have dreams like this? I'm ok this morning although I still seem a little sore and whiney. Thanks for the input. I'll let mom know what everybody thinks. She's kind of a worrier anyway.

I do that when I sleep, Sweetie... especially when I'm extra tired and had a busy day. Maybe the pain meds put you into a deep sleep and dream land? Gee, I hope so. You've had it tough enough this far.. you don't want seizures on top of it all

I'm pretty sure it was just a deep sleep dream. We all do this. Kirby looks like he's on his way out sometimes but it's just a dream. You know how it is when you're sound alseep, dreaming and then you wake up all groggy. You don't know where you are for a few seconds.

As long as Sweetie doesn't have a fever as they can sometimes cause seizures, I wouldn't worry.

Get better BFF!! XXOOO♥♥

Sometimes I have bad dreams where I made a weird, squeaky, moany, back of the throat kind of noise (mom says its hard to describe). I'll twitch too. She just wakes me up and i go back to sleep.

I have nightmares just like that, and mom has a hard time waking me up. Sometimes, all she has to do is put a foot or hand on me and it stops. Sheila gets them too when we have storms.

Awww, Sweetie, we hope that you're all right. Maybe it's the meds making you sleep and have different dreams. I sure know how it is to have a worrier for a mama....sometimes she drives us all crazy.

I hope you feel better, Sweetie. We vote for dreaming.

Aw, Sweetie, I bet that was scary for you and your Mom. Maybe you could ask her to call the doctor just to talk to him about it. Get better soon, luvy !! xoxo FiFi

I also hope it was just one of those squirrel chasing dreams. I have those a lot and sometimes I can hear mom saying "Good Boy! You got it!"... I think she hopes that saying that turns my bad dream into a good one!
