A 10-year-old FS Labrador mix dog was presented after having had a possible seizure lasting 20 minutes. Preliminary blood work performed in-house showed hypoglycemia, hypoalbuminemia, an elevated ALP enzyme activity, hypercalcemia, hyperphosphatemia, hypernatremia, and hypokalemia. An insulin blood concentration was decreased. An ACTH stimulation test was normal. The patient continued having seizures due to hypoglycemia for several weeks. Recheck blood chemistry sent out to a laboratory revealed hypoglycemia, hyperphosphatemia, elevated CK, hypokalemia, and hypernatremia.
