I know about the arthritis as when Tipper's cortisol lowered it flared up. That is part of the reason she started laser therapy. She walked three times today and it was cold out so she is already wanting to go to sleep. I turned on the electric blanket for her. Elvis is screaming form his cage so I must cover him before Tipper gets up. Blessings

do you have snow again? glad that you were able to walk though!
so elvis off to bed and tipper too.
nice, that you've got an update on grace.
hope you will have a chance to sleep in till -lets say- 10 a.m.??
i am going to visit my aunt tomorrow, and do her garden.
in return she will cook me a nice meal and spoil the doggies....
it is a pity she does live so far away. driving is not my hobby.....[small country, lots of traffic]
but i don't have to work this monday morning!
i still have to find the guts to upgrade this old pc....stress!
In my simple mind, there is your answer right there ^^^. ;)Quote:

Hi Everyone:
Tipper just walked although it is cold with heavy frost on the ground. Leslie I always go back to the Vetoryl as the cause too, but I guess what I am wanting to find out is why exactly the Vetoryl does to cause this?? What is the mechanism causing this?? It has just gotten so bad . It went from a leg tremor now to full body tremors shaking her violently at times. I thought if I could figure out how the Vetoryl causes this that maybe the Neurologist could prescribe a med that would counteract it. It is increasingly hard to watch. I can tell Tipper is due for Adequan as she is exhibiting tracheal issues again. It is to go into the 60s here today, I hope so as the dogs can be out more. I am going to have to see about permission to get Deloras cat a new home somehow. Asking her is not going to
work as she thinks she is coming home, and would say she wants her cat back! I do not want to call the son, so I have a dilemma here that is not by my choice. Blessings

Hi Everyone:
We are waiting for rain, which I pray does not bring thunder. It is in the 30s and Tipper has walked twice. I was noticing when she has been walked many times and really worn out, she doesn't seem to start with the tremors as much when first going to sleep. No what that piece means to the puzzle, I am not sure yet. I am going to keep a record of her walks and tremor activity to see how they could be connected in the reduction of this. Hope Tipper does not get wound up today from the weather. She has her ACTH again for like the 18th time on Wednesday. I hate doing this to her it really stresses me out. Blessings
Patti
it is april 8 already overhere, so i should not be on the internet with my w-xp pc. but since i didn't visit the forum yesterday i wanted to look at the new messages.
i hope you and tipper are alright.
i hope the test results will be ok wednesday and you can postpone her next test for a long time.
Good luck on Wednesday Patti!
It's been raining all night here.
Hi Everyone:
Well it's been raining for two days so quite a bit of pounding and no dog walking. Tipper went in the closet when it starting raining real hard, but she was not shaking or anything like when it thunders. We are supposed to get that next week. Some tremors thru the nite last nite. I am wanting to see if there is any connection between the days she walks a lot and exercises these muscles, and the days she doesn't, how that affects these tremors. I will watch tonite as she did not walk and see if they are better or worse. Don't know what that will prove, but maybe one step closer to figuring this out. Tomorrow is ACTH day and I am already feeling guilty she has to do this so soon, I think it is number 17 or 18 as I
lost count. This is brutal and I get sick on the day of this testing as I know how hard on her this is. I wish there was some easier way. I guess everyone wishes there was. I watch The Housewives shows and Monday nite one of the women had there Yorkie killed by a large dog next door and she found her dog hanging out of the other dogs mouth. This girl was devasted and had the Yorkie for 7 years. I don't know what is wrong with me, but it is continually on my mind. Every time I think of it it makes me cry. This women was just lot without her baby, and I guess I see a little of me in that, and it really scares me. If I had know that was going to happen, I would have skipped that episode.I pray my baby lives a long life. I know what crushing devastation many forum members have been going thru, and it terrifies me. Blessings
Hi Patti. Just wishing you good luck with Tippers test. I know how hard it is on us, sometimes more so then the actual pups. Hope all goes well.
It was half snow, half rain this morning and cold, but off we go to the swim therapy we missed yesterday. I read your updates everyday, just want you know.
