    Info/thoughts on Vestibular issues?

    ...in another post). It was scary to see this happen AGAIN. The vet told me yesterday it could be pain from her mouth. It could be vestibular. Reading about vestibular, though, it seems to focus on balance (on four). We have not seen any of this when Lucy has been up and moving. Can it...

    Could the tumer be affecting his vestibular system? Maybe he feels too unbalanced to run laps.

    Possible ear infection?

    Let us know what you find out. I have seen cats who have an irritated or infected ear tilt their head, so it may not be vestibular syndrome. At any rate, you are better off waiting for the vet since the appointment is tomorrow. I once made one of my dog's ear infection much worse by trying to...

    Dealing with vestibular disease - again

    ...( a little) since I thought it may be saddle thrombosis. I took her to the vet prepared to say goodby, but upon exam vet said it was vestibular. I had totally missed the nystagmus and the titled head. I was relieved! Zippy did have a lower than normal temperature so they kept her for the day...

    Dealing with vestibular disease - again

    Is it idopathic? Indy has Idiopathic vestibular disease and actualy had her first attack in the peak of the pandemic (when everything was grey zone locked down) so didn't get diagnosed officialy until a year later.

    Dealing with vestibular disease - again

    I'm sorry you are going through this again. It's so scary vestibular disease but your zippy certainly has the right person looking after her. You told me about your other experience of it when i was dealing with it with my Bandit. I didn't have a clue what to expect. Sending hugs to Zippy and...

    Dealing with vestibular disease - again

    Without expensive X-rays and tests we couldn’t be certain if it was idiopathic. It maybe an inner ear infection. So we chose to treat her for an infection. She has vastly improved since I took her to the vet. She even managed a few very wobbly steps this morning.

When she had her second stroke/vestibular incident in April, she got full blood work which was all fine, including thyroids and negative for diabetes. I would imagine her blood work then...

    Any advice for neurological disorder

    ...is like chewing and/or drooling are usually signs if nausea. Eyes moving back and forth suggest severe dizziness. Have you investigated vestibular syndrome? It could be caused by an infection of the inner ear, so antibiotics are a good bet. It could also be a tumour that either affects the...

    Willy might have cancer / high-grade lymphoma Treatment thread

    He doesn't seem off-balance when playing and jumping. I also keep having to remind myself that we have no idea what's going on inside his body. He hasn't had any kind of scan to reveal internal tumors. I'm sure such a thing would be way out of my budget, anyway. But no signs of pain, at all...

    Swaying head?

    ...is not doing any of this when she is on her feet or sitting. We were not able to replicate it at the clinic. She told me it could be vestibular. She told me it could be a reaction to the pain. She still has some swelling on her cheek area but looks like some of it has gone down but...

    Some genetics questions about colourpoints/Siamese as well as vestibular disease

    ...forum specific for genetics so I hope it's okay to go under this section. Let me know if there's a better one. My questions are about vestibular disease and about colourpoints/Burmese/Siamese. Some of them might be a bit stupid but my information processing is kind of low right now and for...

    Sudden vestibular issue in our blind cat

    Indys head tilt that is basically the hallmark sign of vestibular disease. She walks like this and sits like this. Vet thinks a skull deformity is pinching the nerve or it's a defect within her vestibular apparatus it's self (I call it her gyroscope)

    Sudden vestibular issue in our blind cat

    Indy has idiopathic vestibular disease. You can read about my experience here. Head tilt (feline idiopathic vestibular disease? ) I'm not sure if your cat has the idiopathic version or not but in Indy's case I took a wait and see approach since she's not distressed, just has a head tilt, and I...

    Cat with vestibular disease

    ...IBD (bowel disease) so this medication can be used to rule out. However, nothing has improved after few days, and I felt like he has vestibular disease just the way he acted (kept rotating one side, and loosing balance). About 2 weeks since I first noticed the symptom, I saw him more obvious...

    @Integra This was the first thing I noticed as well. I understand you said it is a result from her vestibular event/stroke.. you said the vet mentioned her pupils being dialated.. what exactly was said about it? High blood pressure can cause a stroke.. I would definitely have them check her...
