Kizzys Mum
Well-known member
She has been diagnosed with CM, but not SM. The vet informed us that no further treatment would be necessary, as he said that there was plenty of room in her skull. I'm a bit disappointed and confused as I always thought our vets were quite up to date on SM/CM (they held an information evening about it and our vet has always seemed knowledgable); but today was told that "CM doesn't cause pain"??? and surely, if she has CM, that would mean there WASN'T enough room in her skull?
Although I wouldn't say Kizzy has extreme symptoms, she has enough for me to be concerned - she sometimes yelps for no reason, she licks her lips, she sometimes stares, etc. Am I right in thinking that I should obtain and show her scan to a neurologist for a second opinion (she was scanned at our vets by a visiting MRI scanner)? I hate to think that she could be in pain when I could be helping her
