He had lungworm it turned out, which had caused all the neuro signs. He&#39;s better now, but has lost most of the sight in both eyes unfortunately :( We are definitely seeing a lot more confirmed cases, and have taken to treating for lungworms prior to surgery, as we have had a few cases with coagulation problems.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://www.vetnurse.co.uk/thread/120303?ContentTypeID=1Sun, 25 Sep 2011 18:45:56 GMT1a0763ec-3885-442c-853e-6cef656dfec5:ac4bf269-ad98-402b-911d-6e9fa0bdf459Kerry Brennand DipAVN (Surgical) RVN A1 MBVNA<p>Oh know not a staffie thats soooo sad <img src="http://www.vetnurse.co.uk/emoticons/new/Sad_smiley.png" alt="Sad" /></p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://www.vetnurse.co.uk/thread/120302?ContentTypeID=1Sun, 25 Sep 2011 18:39:48 GMT1a0763ec-3885-442c-853e-6cef656dfec5:d26761fa-101a-49d7-83be-d3f130796c18hissycat<p>Only one and a half. she was a little staffie, very sad case. </p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://www.vetnurse.co.uk/thread/120298?ContentTypeID=1Sun, 25 Sep 2011 12:08:58 GMT1a0763ec-3885-442c-853e-6cef656dfec5:37e6619a-dccf-464c-ac4d-99e00f1d8243Susan Jackson<p>Can I just ask how old was the dog?</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://www.vetnurse.co.uk/thread/120291?ContentTypeID=1Sun, 25 Sep 2011 06:02:19 GMT1a0763ec-3885-442c-853e-6cef656dfec5:bb7189fc-971b-42da-b401-59fa999070c5Steph Worsley<p>yep they can have neuro signs esp if they have bleeding in the brain</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://www.vetnurse.co.uk/thread/120288?ContentTypeID=1Sat, 24 Sep 2011 22:21:01 GMT1a0763ec-3885-442c-853e-6cef656dfec5:793dd7cd-ead6-490d-9330-1c216cfe0f04Kerry Brennand DipAVN (Surgical) RVN A1 MBVNA<p>Yes neurological signs and seizures can occur......these are more rare than the other signs......lungworm is definately getting more common with more confirmed cases......I am telling clients about advocate <img src="http://www.vetnurse.co.uk/emoticons/new/Very_happy_smiley.png" alt="Big Smile" /></p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
