Sebastian: Nerve twitching in paralyzed legs

[Jeltje]

Hi all. So my Sebastian has been experiencing some nerve twitching in his legs and tail today. He seems bothered by it, and so am I. Early on I put together a medical kit for him. So I have gabapentin on hand. However it is a whopping 800 mg. Can this be dosed for him? He is 350 grams. Also JUST noticed that he has some scabbing on his hind leg and foot so I guess he began to chew. Uuugh. Help please! ShoulD I be as concerned as I am?? I love my little baby. 💜💜💜🐿☮️ THANK YOU IN ADVANCE❤️

Chewing can become a big problem. It usually denotes feeling, itching or pain. Hopefully some TSB experts will post soon. Send a PM Tubedriver , he might be able to give advice...

I had a paralyzed little guy named MILAGRO----he was a terror but I loved him very much..

Sebastian--
in the photo of MILAGRO---that silver "stuff" under his front claws , is about 9 layers of duct tape.Milagro he was a SERIOUS biter....and every day --it seemed --I had to reinforce my glove fingers with more & more tape.
