Nothing other than a Hematoma, that is what Atlas had a few months back. I noticed a lot of head tossing and then it appeared.
Dr. Vaughn prescribed a large dose of steriods and 2 days in, Atlas appeared to become incontenent (sp) and dizzy. I requested to go off the steriods and while she(vet) didn't approve, said we could. Also said it would take longer for the hematoma to go down.
Why is Fred's ear so senstive, any idea? Atlas had when he arrived and has always had constant ear infections, despite cleaning every other day with a Q-tip and tissue and then cleaning with solution every 5th day as prescribed by our Vet.
Good Luck Fred.
