Upon reading the above links I posted, along with her symptoms, I'm leaning on what Hexe said.
Keep us posted,
Brandi

Thanks for the links Brandi, I took "Miya" to the Vet on Thursday, he checked her physically for Cauda equina and possible degenerative myelopathy. She has been walking wierd and sometimes losing her balance. The vet did say that she did not appear to have DM since she was moving a waving her tail. When he pushed down on her hips she did not buckle, also he did test her hind paws, he bent them over and she flipped them right back on her pads immediately. He did not seem to think it was cauda equina either. He did take her off of the rymadyl and put her on a high dose of prendisone. I hope this helps, she has been very lethargic lately. We might have to see a nuerologist if things don't get any better. Like I stated earlier her quality of life must really suck right now, I hope I am doing all the right stuff. I will keep you all posted on her progress while on the steroids.

Thanks

FM58, this is something I'd suggest pursuing aggressively--if your vet's ruling out CES, and he's taken her off the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory in favor of prednisone, that is worrisome.  It's specialist time; the bigger differentials that are more 'zebra' than 'horse' [the medical/veterinary diagnostics mantra: "when you hear hoofbeats, think horses, not zebras...unless you're in Africa" = always look for the most common cause of a problem first, not the unusual ones; Africa = everything else is nearly impossible or ruled out already].  Things such as fungal infections which settle in the spine, a tumor or cyst or foreign object pressing against the spinal cord or disks--see the thread titled 'Cisco"--these things need to be caught ASAP if there's any hope of a good outcome.  Consequently, once we reach the 'throw some pred at it' stage of diagnosis and treatment, I'm not going to wait and see anymore--because pred can also just mask the situation, and let something bad progress quietly unnoticed.

It's a bad situation all around, I understand...but I think you'd rather have the facts of what your girl is dealing with, and make decisions from that point, than hide from the specifics and be caught unprepared if/when things went bad for her.  Time for a referral to a neurologist.
