Pixie woke me up
Today I feel tired and sluggish. I woke up at 3:30 am to the sound of Pixie's yelping with another attack. It was pretty bad one this time. This is the second in a week period. *sighs* After the attack he made me get up three times and open the door so he could drink water. I took him out to pee once. He was disoriented so he couldn't go back to sleep. I was awake until 4:00 am keeping an eye on him. Finally, he went back to sleep if a bit restless yet.
When this all started I thought he'd suffered a bad epileptic attack, but now he has had about 6 of these attacks in little over a month. This is going to far, and I no longer believe these attacks are caused by epilepsy. The thought that he might be suffering arthritis, a common disease in Chihuhauas, has crossed my mind lately. Although it scares me to think that maybe it's his heart. If it weren't for the labs I have to give today, I'd take him to the vet right now.
