Hey Dude, so glad she is being bratty again!!!!!

The special med we have Moose on is Keppra - it's used regularly in the human market but is fairly new to the veterinary market. It has made a huge difference in his life. He still takes low doses of phenobarbital and potassium bromide, but because the doses are so small he doesn't suffer from any side effects. He still has seizures - maybe once a month (and I daresay, you haven't seen a seizure until you've watched a 160# great dane have a full-fledged grand mal...). Once a month we can deal with. And equally as important, he now comes out of the seizure on his own fairly quickly, so no valium needed, and no more trips to the emergency clinic for seizure clusters that won't stop. That medication has truly been a life-saver for Moose.

This girl is a very picky eater, which doesn't help matters.We have been
giving her chicken because it's the only thing she will consistently eat.
We also have been giving her a midnight feeding.
We would like to ( if it's diabetes or hypoglycemia) control this thru diet
or supplements of some kind.
If any one knows of some healthier things she might eat in addition to her
chicken that would be great.
