No, I did not ask him about epilepsy. Last night, after the petit mal suggestions here, I watched multiple videos of dogs having petit and grand mal seizures. One video lasted 9-1/2 minutes. I watched videos of different breeds and sizes and types of seizures. It was a long night of video watching and online epilespy research, but I wanted to make sure that I saw as many videos as possible, and read as much as possible, to see if there was anything close to what Whisper is experiencing.
There wasn't. I kept trying to find something, but I couldn't. Obviously, epilepsy can't and shouldn't be ruled out. The diagnosis isn't over until it's over. And it ain't over. The Vet did say that a video would help him with his diagnosis - so that he can see exactly what is happening (as has been posted in this thread). So I will test my patience and capture those 1-3 second episodes! Whisper may file stalking charges against me, but in a court of law, I'd prevail.
"It is for the good of the companion animal to have the video surveillance. Case dismissed."
And as I write this, I just realized that Whisper has not had a single episode today (as of now anyway). She is sleeping in the middle of the living room floor, on her back, legs spread wide (the little vamp).
