Mickey's meds

We took Mickey to the vet to get his blood levels checked to be sure he is within the correct ranges for the Potassium Bromide and PhenoBarbital. We can reduce the Potassium a little but we have to increase the Pheno. He has epilepsy and these meds have helped greatly in controlling the seizures (he hasn't had one since Thanksgiving week last year).

I don't like having him on the Pheno because it will eventually damage his liver, but he was experiencing cluster seizures and they were so hard on him. I guess it's a trade off.
