Buddy, The Mighty Lizard Hunter - Suspected Pituitary Macro Tumor

Checking in on you and Buddy Boy. How did it go today? I'm sure you were a mess of nerve. So, sounds like a good time to go home, cuddle with Buddy a bit and have a relaxing swim. Yep, that is definitely on the to do list. :) Hope that everything is good there and Buddy is okay.

Kathy and Buddy:cool:

Pleased to hear you are hanging in there! Hope your working day speeds by with no problems at home, I am sure we would all rather be at home when they are under the weather but unfortunately something has to pay the bills, so off to work we go :(. xx

Thinking of you and Buddy

Did you get any reply to your mail? Hope all is ok today and you are having a good day

Hi Mel,
So sweet of you to check on us. :) No response from my email yet, but hopefully soon. Buddy had one tremor yesterday, starting around 4:00PM. It started and stopped for about 15 minutes. He could have had some while I was at work. I just don't know. It is hard when I can't be there. :( He was acting normally when I got home.:) It rained yesterday, so no lizard hunting! Buddy was not happy about that!:D The rainy weather did help Buddy's allergies. He needed less Benadryl, so he was much more alert. That was nice!:)

Is Buddy getting a liquid Benedryl?

Leslie,
I tried changing Buddy's antihistamine to Chlor-timeton (sp) . It was from the list you gave me. It upset his stomach the first time I tried it, so I went back to Benadryl. Not always effective and causes drowsiness, but better than nothing. Now with the tremors, I'm afraid to make any changes. Buddy is on Benadryl tablets 25 mg. - he take half a tablet, usually twice per day. Can be taken up to 3 times per day, every 8 hours. Buddy weighs 16 pounds, so 12 1/2 mg. if fine.
He can have up to 16 mg. - 1 mg. per pound. Yesterday with the rain, Buddy only needed one dose.

Ok...some of the liquid meds like Benedryl have Xylitol as a sweetener which is toxic to dogs. One of the side effects is tremors so I was just curious if this might have some bearing. Just wool gathering. ;)

Thanks Leslie for watching out for us!:)
