[quote=Anonymous]Just another poster to say there is hope. I had a Springer spaniel and he passed away recently at 14.5 and he had a great quality of life despite years of seizures. His started relatively late in life, I believe at 6 or 7. Because at that age they are often the result of a tumor we did all of the scans and they were expensive, but he was clear. So we started meds and they did help a lot. Seizures declined from monthly to every 6 months. They are scary to watch and messy to clean up, but he really didn’t seem too bothered by them. They are totally out of it during the seizures. My understanding is that the expensive scans really only serve one purpose, to identify a tumor that could be treated or removed via surgery. If that is unaffordable, or unwanted, you would treat symptoms and you can hopefully afford the meds. [/quote]
