test results are in

The Vet called me a few minutes ago and there is a sign of Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever.
She doesn't know if this is the cause of the seizures but it definitely could be.
There are 3 things we can do

1-recheck blood in 3 weeks to see if it is active
2-do a PCR today to see if it is active
3-put him on antibiotics for 21 days

She said this could completely take care of the seizures or not. She said you just don't know until it happens.
I decided to go with the antibiotics. If he continues to have seizures after this then we know that it wasn't it and we will discuss the seizure meds.
