Wow i know its been a while,but chasen has baby GERD (thats a whole post in itself) Im sick and life is busy.
So let me begin with yesterday morning, Its 6am Im sick with the chills and a fever, Im on the couch (at Joellyns) nursing chasen who keeps throwing up all over me this went on for about 45min then we both fall asleep, Kevin comes out around 7am and is whining because he has to potty, I told him to go tell his dad and he went back in the bedroom and whined but wasn't loud enough to wake dad. So after 10 min or so of listening to him whine I decided I would get up and let him out.
Well he heard a truck started barking and then started running around running into stuff, I couldn't really see him because I was trying to get out of the couch while holding chasen, but once I could see him I knew something was wrong because he was sprawled out on the floor shooting around like a pinball in a pinball machine I yelled for ean as Kevin shot down the hallway running into the walls, he ended up in Joellyns bed room and Ean and I figured out he was having a seizure, ean held him so he didnt hurt himself any more and he just kept shaking, vomited and pooped all over. Joellyn took Chasen while I call the ER vet, we ended up taking Kevin to the vet to have them do blood work and they found nothing, no toxins so he didnt get into anything, They said that sometimes dogs will have epilepsy and they will put them on meds if they have more then one seizure a month so we are to continue to monitor him and bring him back if he has another one.
It was so scary and so sad because he looked so scared as he was having his seizure, of course I was balling and though he as dying but so far everything has been good, he did throw up last night but I think he is okay.
we were joking that maybe it was a pseudo seizure for attention since he doesn't get as much attention any more ;)
I have been sick since Friday and now realize that I have mastitis. FUN FUN. I go to the Dr. tomorrow to get some meds. as for right now im sitting here with cabbage on my boobs, they say it helps.....whatever it takes.

Poor Kevin! And poor mama and little Chasen! If you need any pointers/advice about reflux, talk to my sister (add her through Facebook - her name is "Jayme O'Rourke Mews") - she's been through reflex with a couple of her babies.
Have you looked into the possibility of food allergies? I know that Ean had a milk allergy when he was little, and the symptoms you have mentioned make me think of my sister's oldest daughter (who has a severe milk allergy). Again, she would be the expert on that and she is more than happy to offer advice and tips to new mamas with little babies and GI problems! I think the food allergy test is pretty simple (and I vividly remembering bringing in a poop card for my nieces on occasion!).
