The report arrived today and it says the MRI revealed mild caudal occipital malformation with no evidence of cerebellar herniation and there was mild syringohydromyelia at the level of the cervical and cranial thoracic spine.
It also says that postural reactions were inconsistently delayed on the right pelvic limb and they've told me to keep an eye on this. But they've also said they cannot explain this at this stage. I'm not sure what it means though and what to look out for so will have to ring and ask.
I'm still concerned at the cause of treatment as it states I said she episodes of frantic scratching at the neck... it's not frantic at all I don't think so think I need to phone and clarify this.
My regular vet advised me to phone and ask to speak to someone more senior as the girl who saw Star was a resident so may not be up to date with all the treatments as in her report she only mentioned treatment with frusemide, prednisolone and gabapentin.
I'm going to make some notes on what I want clarified etc and make a call either tomorrow or monday.
