Guest guest Posted August 1, 2008 Report Share Posted August 1, 2008 oh my God, Jill...I am so sorry to hear about your dog!! I myself am not fortunate enough to be able to have a loving pet as I have serious athma, but my family members do and I know from them that your pet is part of the family...a very important part. with regards to the fear of the RSD spreading to your hand..did you s/w your pain dr? Sometimes they can prevent RSD from setting in or if it does set in...to get it our stat....by going to Physical Therapy. I know that this hurts like all hell...but it may just nip it in the bud. I surely will pray for you and your beloved friend...pickle. What a cute name!!!!! If you need a shoulder....I am here for you...hang in!

Guest guest Posted August 1, 2008 Report Share Posted August 1, 2008 How's your hand? Sometimes a nerve block injection can stop the rsd from spreading. I would certainly advise you to talk to pain dr. asap. RSD has a mind of its' own. if you can stop the spread since you had the dog bite you need to find out. Good Luck. I understand how frightening it is to find your loving dog having seizures. I found my dog having seizures after eating chocolate. Chocolate is toxic to dogs. My daughter had made an Easter basket for a friend. The family went out and when we can home we found empty chocolate wrappers all over the house. Token had gotten into the basket and eaten all the chocolate!!!!!!!She had a ball, but paid dearly for it. We found her having a seizure. I was terrified and didn't know what to do. We took her to vet, had to leave her for a few days, but luckily she was ok. Could pickles have eaten or gotten into something she shouldn't have? How old is she? Sometimes dogs get seizures when they get older. These could be starting points to explore, or they may never find out why it happened. Hope you are both doing better. dog bite Hi everyone !!!! well its been a rough week,,, tuesday morning my hubby left for work at 5:00 am,,, then at 5:10 am my dog( pickle) a cocker, went into a seizer (sp?)..

Guest guest Posted August 2, 2008 Report Share Posted August 2, 2008 HEY GIRLS! LISA...HOW IS PICKLES DOING...HOPE SO MUCH BETTER!!! SUE..YOU ARE SO RIGHT..THAT SOMETIMES BLOCKS DO HELP IN STOPPING THE SPREAD OF RSD...I HAD MAJOR SURGERY ON MY WRIST AFTER I FELL ON IT AT HOME. IT WAS SEVERELY FRACTURED, DISPLACED AND DISLOCATED. I NEEDED A PLATE AND 5 SCREWS TO PUT MY " HUMPTY DUMPTY WRIST BACK TOGETHER AGAIN " LOL...BUT PRIOR TO THEM DOING THE SURGERY ON MY WRIST..THEY DID A MAJOR, I MEAN MAJOR BLOCK TO MY ARM...IT WORKED LIK A CHARM... THAT HAD TO BE SO SCARY FOR BOTH OF YOU TO WITNESS SUCH A HORRIBLE THING. LISA...I WILL KEEP PICKLES IN MY PRAYERS..AS I DO KNOW THAT A PET IS NOT JUST A DOG OR A CAR OR A TURTLE...BUT A FAMILY MEMBER.

Guest guest Posted August 26, 2010 Report Share Posted August 26, 2010 We gave Ledum 30c (on advice of our homeopath) when the same thing happened to my son (it was a puncture wound). Cleaned it well with colloidal silver, let it bleed a bit, he did fine :-)J Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
