Inital episode in 2008 of a &#39;panic attack&#39;. Nothing obvious on physical exam, no known stimulus or exposure to toxin, no pain found. Bloods normal.

The owners were against referral yesterday but had changed their mind by this morning. When I spoke to said neurologist, he thought it was most likely to be psychomotor seizures.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://www.vetsurgeon.org/thread/104099?ContentTypeID=1Wed, 08 Jan 2014 14:23:34 GMT146601cc-3922-4be7-9974-7e1d4e45a66b:80e590c2-36f1-4edc-9b78-d2c278949b54Martin Atkinson<p>Given that this has happened on more than one occasion over a period of several years I would say it is very unlikely to be a toxicity or disease process and would put limbic epilepsy at the top of the list.
