Thank y'all so much. He is still seeming to be doing ok. My husband also should do fine. He already has a lot more movement and swelling is going down. It seems as tho he may have nicked the tendon for the index finger but nothing that requires surgery. We will go in for a follow up appointment I believe in a week to make sure his levels are back on track. He's been sleeping a lot today but has been his Normal happy self. Still a bit out of it but 8 seizures in less than 24 hours would do that to a guy. Lots of puppy cuddles today for our baby boy. Just very thankful for no seizures no matter how little I get done because he feels like he needs cuddles.

Is there any chance he might have eaten a mushroom or something that could have caused this? Maybe licked one of them special toads? It's just so weird that they came on so fast and then went away equally as fast... He sure does look comfy, but wiped out laying there. I'm sure after what he's been through he's going to be stiff and sore, and the rest will help immensely.

I was thinking the same thing.

Last night after the Valium was wearing off he started having mini seizures according to the vet when I described them to him. We gave the Valium again and he bounces back again but as of today we are starting pheno barb for seizure control today. They think he has epilepsy that was triggered more severely with this bout of pancreatitis. Looking back we realized there was an incident about three weeks ago that we came home and he had peed and pooped in the basement and there was slobber everywhere. He was a nervous wreck when we came home which was very much like the state he was in after his first seizure. If that is the case then he has had a previous one and potentially as a puppy while kenneled all those times we had come home and he was covered in urine and poop may not have been lack of bladder control after all. We had no clue until now that we started thinking back.
