Re: these dam seizures
Yes, that will work....but I believe you want to give it throughout the day....are you concerned he's seizing due to MBD or the neuro issues? I have seen here that molasses or karo syrup (even maple syrup) on the gums can help with seizures, sometimes.
Hopefully, some of our experts on these issues will postBut I do know you can give the tums diluted in water
Throughout the day so his calcium levels stay up.

Re: these dam seizures
I dnt belive its MBD. His diet consist of hhb and fruits/veggies. When he does have a seizure, he will run in circles at the beginning. He completely evacuates his bowels and bladder and drools. When we do see him have one, we just pick him up and try to talk and rub him out of it. Any suggestions from anyone would be helpful at this point...Originally Posted by Shewhosweptforest

Re: these dam seizures
Do you have vet access? You say he is neuro, what are his neuro symptoms? Did he take a fall as a baby? Valium is sometimes used. I had a neuro girl who did seize but only if she was very stressed. What preceeded the seizures, what was she doing?

Re: these dam seizures
Neuros are the best. They steal my heart. Our butters would have seizures from smelling meats and bones. But Kazees spells seem to have been too large of a space and Gramy's body spray. But with butters I gave him bits of butter, hence his name. Which was full of fat which helps brain development. Now Kazee just eats plain fat yogurt. Butters woukd nit touch yougurt. Also introducing both to smaller spaces and on the floor seemed to help. And we always stayed near and let thrm know we were near. And eventually they both ran the whole house. Butters learned to climb anything. Kazee climbs very very little. Kazee still had a head tilt when he gets tired, and he also stumbles when tired. They both learned to put themselves to bed. If you study your little one while out you may notice something may trigger the spells,.
Re: these dam seizures
Buddy came to me with his Sister two yrs ago as pinkies, im unsure if they had a fall of just plain old abandoned , Buddy did have a dis coloration on his noggin as his sister didn't. his first seizure came in the fall after being on solid foods ( they were fed Fox Valley). I never saw his sis have one . he will run and climb and play and be a crazy man, then out of the blue he is twitching and thrashing ... he will usually run in circles first. they last 10-30 seconds . I was trying to get extra calcium carbonate in him but he is now refusing it. he will eat just about 2 hhb daily along with apple, pear, avocado, dandelion leaves, blueberry's, cherry tomatoes, baby corn and corn on the cob. with a pecan or acorn here and there. He did see a vet back in March to be declared NR ( although I already knew) and to talk about his seizures. Dr seemed to think it was a neuro issue and was not having the seizures close enough to one another to look into medicating him. If its Real hot outside, I bring him and his nest box inside to the ac, he gets ample time to run in his own back screened in porch with his 5 ft x 3ft cage . He gets very skiddish out of the blue too, but nothing out of the ordinary around to spook him. My heart breaks when he has these eposoides

Re: these dam seizures
First of all I would stop any corn. And I would spread out the HHB feedings, meaning one in the morn and the other for lunch or dinner. Sounds like our Kazee he goes n goes until he is so tired I have to put him up. I would try to keep track of his time up and the time the spells happen. If they seem close each time u trackthe times it may be he is wore out.
Re: these dam seizures
try just giving a regular calcium tablet Lil poto will eat them better than tums
