Could it be a middle ear infection ?
If so would steroids be a bit too risky and maybe a more 'heavy duty' abx might be better :? Plus gut motility meds in the acute phase :?
I am probably completely wrong
Sending loads more vibes for her xx

its something vet considered but thinks more likely to be recurrence of old illness.
She was very similar last time but it was her left eye not her head that flickered last time . (meningitus type illness or even EC or both )
ears look clear..of course it could be something deeper down .. :?..where we cant see .:?
Ive got metaclop and zantac on standby .

Blackberry has his head pull round and eye flicker sometimes (and other times full fits) in his case it is remnant brain damage from the EC.
He has also developed the sluggish caecum that in horses is sick grass (sorry cannot recall rabbit name) and the vet thinks there might be a link between all three.

im starting to think its been EC all along to be honest ..Hope illness last year left her having funny turns which we compared with human petit mal seizures .
thanks for that .

Blackberry has those as well - we have just started giving him Diazapan when he has a string of seizures as it brings him out of them and sort of stops the rut he gets into with having a whole string.
We also use half a tablet of Cisipride twice a day now to stop the gut slowing - have been doing this for 2 months and its working really really well for him.
We did use a lot of Panacur in the past but have really cut back on how often we give that now as were worried in case of link with stomach issues.
It takes Blackberry a few days to get back to normal after having seizures - and a few days the other end to get into the trough of them.
rest of the time he is a very happy bun!!!
