I found out what is wrong with me!

Star Hunter on Health - Thu, August 21 2008

The vet called today and had the lab recheck my blood. They still had my blood--yippie. The one test came back the same but the other one changed. The test that is to be between 8-40 had first come back at 99. Now, the second time it came back at 4. I have a low thyroid problem and this caused the seizure problem too. Mommy is to start taking me off the seizure med. slowly and start me on thyroid med. We are so happy about this report. This can be easily controlled. I think I will get a walk tonight to celebrate. It is a little cooler anda the sun is not shinning. Happy Day-0-Happy Day.

Oh, I think LOTS of treats and a nice, relaxing walk is definitely what you need! My mom wants you to know that her first dog had that exact same problem (low thyroid) and after he got on the meds, it was never an issue again!

Poor little Star Hunter! My mommy has low thyroid too so you will be on meds just like she is! I'm glad you won't have any more seizures, I'll bet that was scary for your mom.
