Lee,
I assume that in the blood tests they checked her thyroid, if not they
should. Also, if she at any time she had canine influenza it can cause a
brain abscess and seizures. We rescued a bitch a few years ago that was
pronounced "healthy" by the vet at the Riverside County Animal Shelter that
had canine influenza. Even though she was sick, they spade her and sent her
off with us. Many of our dogs got influenza. One of them, "Hef", got it bad
and developed a brain abcess and seizures. We eventually lost him.
