Hi, Thanks to Professor, Beth, Carla, Lisa, Els, and Anthony .....esp...
from little lionhead Mui...

She had actually gave me notification last two days,
as I told Beth, she made noises using her nose again ...telling me
something...unwell or what ever...
and i saw her getting more nervous suddenly and turned around more
sometimes...
so i was getting ready as well...

She had been on Phenonbarbitone for about 22 days already, twice a day
after I talked to vet last time and had a blood test again...

I saw her fall down a few times last two days as well, and one time before
the seizure, totally upside down and cannot move herself...I did not know if
any siezure before the one i saw in fact...

I gave valium the injection and she screamed and struggled
and then rested...

this injection works better than the last one...

If any rabbit friend here have more info about other rabbit's seizure real
case internationally,
if possible, pls pass me more info about their problem,
I would like to take it as reference...

We suppose to recheck with the vet next Tuesday, I will see if the vet will
be on this few days...
Hope we can wait, and we have medicine and injection still.....

We need more prayers here...she seems quite nervous and sensitive this
morning as well...

Thanks,
Frustrated Petrina

Prayers for your bunny baby, Petrina.

Seizures can be quite mysterious, even in humans.

The cause may never be known.

The good thing is that they could stop for no reason, too.

Yes, she is postive with E-Cunuculi and she has taken pancur, baytril for
over 1 months and stopped already.
If it is ear problem, it should be cured as well....with the baytril....?!

When she was a baby, I came to ask as well, coz she would have 1-3 seizures
during each winter.
However, it stopped for last winter and it came this summer with many many
many....
Very mysterious.....she is not poisonious, no hitting on her head...

1st time to 2nd time, there are 27 days gap
2nd time to 3rd time, there are 23 days gap
3rd time to this time, there are 22 days gap....

Wondering if it would be a cycle...even she is on seizure medicine fore 22
days non stop already...
Valium injection is controlling her seizure?....probably...

I have many questions in my head and even vets cannot tell me absolutely....
sigh....

Thanks, Nona.

Petrina. if she's positive for E-cuniculi, then that is most likely
the cause of the seizures.  You need to give her Metacam (meloxicam)
to reduce swelling in her brain.

It would depend on whether you have the older or the newer sort of the
drug available but if it's the older type, i believe the dosage rate
is approx 1ml (1cc) for a rabbit that weighs 3.5 pounds (1.6kg)  That
isn't exact, but since the drug isn't actually licenced for rabbits,
it's as close as I've been able to find out.

EC parasites get into the brain and cause problems in there and it's
the swelling they cause that may be starting off her seizures.  Please
ask your vet for some Metacam.

Hi Ros,

She had metacam for her legs for long time, about 2yrs already.
But after seizure, they stop her metacam. I am not sure why.
I will ask them again.

She took Panacur for e-cunuculi for about 1 month and baytril mroe than 1
month.

When she had the first 50 seizure in 2 days, she was on metacam as well.

Can EC be cured totally? What else can help her?

Thanks,
Petrina

The same as always, Mui get better already! Hope you can get some of
the suggested medicines, if just to make her more comfortable. I wish
she could get rid of this. Carla Liza and Jodie.

EC can be brought under control (using Panacur, Baytril and Metacam)
but I'm not sure you can totally eliminate it.

I've forwarded a link to this thread to a friend who knows a lot more
about it than I do and I hope she'll join the group and post to you,
or else mail you privately.

In the meantime, I would advise you ask the vet about restarting
Metacam.

Very best wishes

Ros
HeyPet - 29 Aug 2008 18:12 GMT

I will ask vet on the next recheck.
Do you have my email?

Poor Mui - I sure hope you can find something to stop this Petrina. It
seems you have been thru so much with her.  Vibes coming your way to
stop the seizures once and for all.
