The jerky head was one of them. See jessie's story on www.janeiro-emmy.blogspot.com<br />I really hope twix gets better. I am also praying. It is so terrible to see them so helpless and dependent and ill. My Jessie was paralysed for a year but did get better, although never 100%. She still has quality of life though. She had to relearn everthing from peeing, eating, walking the whole lot. <br />janDogs in Brazilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01429734483073799767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3681255911935782212.post-53714838243269022952011-02-15T10:27:06.447-06:002011-02-15T10:27:06.447-06:00miss twix,

Maggie and Mitch asked us to drop by and have a look to see if we can offer any insight. <br /><br />I'm so sorry you are not feeling yourself, and mum feels bad for your mommy, it must be hard on her. <br /><br />Mum says that personality change (ie, you lying on your back for your belly to be scratched) combined with drunken walk, wobbly-ness, inappetence could be signs of a brain tumour. My thought I had a pituitary macroadenoma (brain tumour) too because things that used to make me excited no longer did, and I wasn't a b*tch anymore. I also stumble some. However, as it turned out, I had Cushing's disease that required meds. Once I started the meds, I began to slowly return to my former self. I still stumble, but it most likely originates from cervical region of my spine, unrelated to the brain. <br /><br />An MRI would show brain tumours as well as spinal lesions. But it requires anesthetic.<br /><br />I really hope there is nothing major going on with you and I will be sending you lots of AireZENS!! Hugs to you and your mom.<br /><br />Love nibbles,<br />Miss SunshadeSunshadehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04132727875670811990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3681255911935782212.post-88165719382702895692011-02-08T19:08:18.875-06:002011-02-08T19:08:18.875-06:00Hi, Twix~ It's nice to meet you and we're ...Hi, Twix~ It's nice to meet you and we're sorry your having so much trouble...we don't have any ideas what might be wrong but we are going to share your blog with everyone we can in case someone we know has any ideas.

The high WBC count indicates a response to an infection/inflammation occurring in the vestibular system (located in the ear). This center controls balance. The head tilt is a classic sign of this disease. The lack of interest in food is most likely due to the disease's effect on her fine motor control. Often, dogs will only be able to take food from the hand of his/her owner (because the dog cannot pick the food out of the bowl). I would presume that is why she would eat wet food but not dry food as dry food requires much more finite control to "pick up" as opposed to just licking up wet food. Here is a link to information about the disease: http://www.wisegeek.com/what-is-vestibular-neuritis.htm<br /><br />Has your vet done a neuro exam?Kimberlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16575608130121610217noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3681255911935782212.post-77007326857608177132011-02-06T08:51:17.215-06:002011-02-06T08:51:17.215-06:00Hi Twix
