The new vet changed the amount of his meds from 0.9 to 0.7 and am wondering if that has caused this and that 0.7 is not enough to keep him going from one jab to another......I guess I need to ring and try to speak with him but suspect he wont be there if he was in duty all weekend.

Even if he isn't there, one of the other vets should be able to discuss the dosage with you

If it's the same drug as he's had before, I'd be tempted to just increase the amount if that's what he's had before, but probably best to discuss it with the vet first.

Keeping everything crossed there are no more seizure.

Thank you all and sadly he has gone backwards.

I was feeling quite chilled once past 24 hrs without a seizure and slept quite well as did Franta, Misa and Ducha who were all on my bed but around 1120 he had another seizure, 34 hrs after the last! This has never happened before and it was just before he was going to have a jab.

Franta is quite shakey as I am again, cos thought we had broken the back after the first terrible day and am worried that we may have another terrible day

Its amazing how one can go from feeling a bit better to feeling terrible again.

Late last night Franta was feeling well enough to come down stairs and snooze on the sofa and would not come back upstairs, so left him to do his own thing and eventually he came up and got on the bed and ciuddled by my head................all after I had gone to sleep.

I thought everything was progessing well............sigh

Topping up the vibes and

for Franta and you Gill, I hope that he is continuing to progress and that you managed some sleep last night

JackSpratt · « **Reply #1470 on:** November 29, 2010, 10:55:48 AM »

Definitely topping up with more hugs.

24 hours, that's great!

Gill hope you can all get some more rest today and that Franta continues to stay seizure free - we are all curled up on the couch here with our slanket and the heating on

Don't worry about the others they will sense that you and Franta are tired and apprehensive so long as they fed and have clean litter trays they will forgive you

Sue P (Paddysmum) · « **Reply #1468 on:** November 29, 2010, 08:39:29 AM »

Hey Faberlush Frantaman, me and The Padster are sending you extra special snoozles today and hope you're starting to feel a lot better.

You too Gill.

So pleased for you and Franta Gill hopefully you may be able to get a good nights sleep tonight and feel more rested tomorrow. Love the way he made it awkward for you to give him his jab at least it shows he still has his spirit and mischievous side.

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #1465 on:** November 28, 2010, 23:05:03 PM »

No seizures for over 24 hrs which iis great but he is definately not himself, just lies on the floor in one place and I even have to take his food too him.

He is very hungry and I think exhausted from yesterday. I hope he will be a little brighter tomorrow.

One of probs is that I too am exhausted and the other cats are not getting enough attention and Misa especially gets upset.

Its soooooooooo very cold that neither Misa or Sasa want to go out and I am sitting under a duvet but keep falling asleep.

I hope tomorrow is better for all of us and warmer.

He plays me up big time and rolled over onto his back so I couldnt get to the back of his neck

And would you just lay there and let someone jab you

Looking good for you both.

Echoing what everyone else has said Gill, but having a quiet snicker at the fact he could still play you up when it came to jab time.

Gotter love the little man for his pugnacious attitude.

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #1460 on:** November 28, 2010, 15:19:53 PM »

Thank you every one

He is a bit restless at moment, could be the jab kicking in, hope so.

bunglycat · « **Reply #1459 on:** November 28, 2010, 15:11:21 PM »

So pleased he hasn''t had any more seizure - hope that yesterdays was the last he ever has now .

Lots of cuddles and healing vibes still being sent to the handsome man

well done, Franta

looks as if this latest episode has actually moved you forward in dealing with this, Gill, rather than it being a backward step

My thoughts exactly!

If there is a next time, you may be able to nip it in the bud (but let's

this is the beginning of a happy ending).

for you Gill, I know what a vicious circle being exhausted and stressed can be.

Take care of your own wellbeing as well as Franta's if you can.

CarolM (Wendolene) · « **Reply #1456 on:** November 28, 2010, 14:35:04 PM »

Sending lots of these for you and Franta

I have everything crossed for him to continue seizure-ree. As you know I great faith in Marbocyl after it brought Korky back from the brink.

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #1455 on:** November 28, 2010, 13:40:28 PM »

I wish it felt like that trigger........sigh

It just becomes one panic stressed out person at this end, tortured with watching the seizures and dreading doing the jabs.

He plays me up big time and rolled over onto his back so I couldnt get to the back of his neck

Gill I am so pleased

Come on Franta

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #1449 on:** November 28, 2010, 12:42:44 PM »

Hi all thank you for your thoughts and looks like they have helped

along with the marbocyl

Franta has had a good night, ate around 0700..........ate loads!............and I was woken up about 1130 with a meow for more food

So I got some sleep but still feel wiped out and like I could sleep for millions of years!

He has had his jab cos his little tummy clock was just right timing for that and I was so tired around 0300 that didnt even think to put on alarm.

Going on yesterday his next seizure was due between 0300 and 0400 but it never came

So he is now 15 hours without a seizure which is just so wonderful

I just hope he keeps on improving and he is calmer and more relaxed than yesterday and that means I am too.

Kirst · « **Reply #1448 on:** November 28, 2010, 12:12:23 PM »

So sorry that Franta is poorly again - I hope he had a better night , and that he and you are well rested.

Hope his meds start helping him soon Gill, give Franta a big snuggle uggle cuddle from me and try to get some rest which I know is hard when you are so worried. Thinking of you both and you need to take care of yourself, even if it means catching a couple of hours when he is dozing if you can.

Rosella moggy · « **Reply #1442 on:** November 28, 2010, 00:16:32 AM »

You will both be in my thoughts overnight Gill and very much hope you both can fit in some healing sleep

Hope you can get some sleep.

Hope the seizures start to settle very very soon

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #1437 on:** November 27, 2010, 23:31:44 PM »

Frantas had his 4th seizure today and they are coming every 6-7 hours . This is as bad as the very first time back in Feb 2009 and they were further apart then but went on for about 4-5 days.

so tired and so worried.

Next one due in about 0300 if he stays on schedule...........not much sleep for me I think.

I just feel so sorry for him and want my Franta back.
