Micro Pig seizures?

[PinkFlamingoFrm]

thank you, It was never after eating the same foods, it was pretty random. She actually had one last saturday, and we woke up to find her dead. We tried to figure out what could be causing them, but there was never anything matching up. I think hers may have been a lil more serious than food . They were getting worse and she didnt make it through her last one.

Our little micromini piggy Lulu had a seizure on Easter day. she was a happy healthy little piggy, never having a seizure before in her short ten-month old life. the seizure lasted about two hours we took her to a vet he gave her a shot of steroids (said she should be fine) she died an hour and 20 minutes later our hearts are broken

I wonder if the size of the pigs causes seziures. Certain types of spaniels (King Charles, I think) are now being bred to such a ridiculous size, that their brains literally do not fit in their skulls, and often times they have neurolical issues. Maybe micro-pigs should be bred to a bit large size, perhaps of a medium-sized dog instead of so tiny.

Yeah, I just don't know? All I have read has said she shouldn't have died from a seizure!?
She has never shown any signs of any neurological abnormalities before that day and it came on so sudden and she died so fast...
The day before our piggy died we had my Moms memorial! We were already grieving beyond belief! Still in shock with all of it!?

Also, Lulu was spade 3 weeks prior to dying
She had a complete exam and never had any problems prior or after until the day she died...the vet that did the surgery was shocked and confused as well...

Not sure of that?
From what I understand from Micro piggies, it actually is returning pigs to their God given size! Pigs started out small and human intervention and hormones started breeding for meat making them bigger and fatter, so not sure how taking the hormones and steroids away through the years returning piggies to their "God Given" size would be problematic? I just don't know!??

sooooo sad!
