My 12-year-old Maltese terrier, Lady, had her spleen removed due to splenic stromal sarcoma in February 18. She started having seizures and is on Keppra, 0.7ml three times a day. This is her first week on Keppra, and she now has a cough, is unsteady, urinates frequently near her bed, is listless, and has no appetite. She has also vomited and has a wheezy cough. What could be causing these symptoms, and what should we do?

My 9-year-old bearded dragon, Johana, has lost a lot of weight over the past 4 months, is lethargic, disoriented, has difficulty catching crickets, and struggles to walk. She has never had babies, was the smallest of her siblings, hasn't shed in a while, and doesn't drink water. What could be causing these issues and what steps should I take to help her?
