(eg. description of the frequency and severity of the symptoms
Jan 07, 2010 at 10:32 PM CST (name) (veterinarian) interacted with Dr. (name) (emergency vet) for reason: obtain help. [Note : Spoke with erDVM about case. Owners brought in another dog about 2 hours ago that was having seizures; dog had history of seizures and was on phenobarbital. Dog did not respond to treatment and owners elected euthanasia. When owners got home, they found their second dog hyperesthetic, and tremoring, and brought her in for care. Gardener today put out coffee grounds and Roundup. Dog spend very little time outdoors; only go out to eliminate. The presence of only tremors/seizures does not fit very well with methylxanthines. Would expect agitation, tachycardia, and gi signs. Could there have been other potential exposures? Moldy food, compost could be sources. If organophosphate insecticides involved, would have expected SLUD signs. The surviving dog did have one bout of vomiting. Owners have been asked about strychnine, which is not a possibility. Suggested now that the dog is stable, have owners check with grandmother at home to see if there are medicaitons in the house. We can add these to case and provide more detailed managerment recommendations. (by AM on Jan 07, 2010 at 11:38 PM)]
