We have decided it was just an iron deficent anemia! So we are treating him and about every 2-4 weeks he goes in and for another cbc to make sure he is still producing red blood cell's with the help of the predizone and then hopefully wean him off it completely then just keep giving him his iron supplement! </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/11065/page/5#post-271530 Sun, 02 Nov 2008 20:08:48 +0000 Momma to 2 MaineCoons 271530@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Today we saw<br /> Siameezers<br /> Oriental shorthairs<br /> scottish folds<br /> tonkinese<br /> singapura's<br /> american curls<br /> Japanese bobtail's<br /> exotic's<br /> persian's<br /> Birman's<br /> Ragdoll's<br /> Somali's<br /> Abby's<br /> Mainecoon's<br /> Egytpian Mau's<br /> devon rex's<br /> cornish rex's<br /> Selkirk rex's<br /> Korat's<br /> Turkish Angora's</p> <p>I think that's all of them heheheh!<br /> Oh wait Bristish shorthair's </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/11065/page/5#post-271529 Sun, 02 Nov 2008 20:07:06 +0000 Tigerlilly 271529@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>LV, have been away for a bit.

And some wont talk to you or they way you see them handle they babies make you think they are only in it for money and bragging rights the money comes from the kittens of course! </p> <p>But Karin and I got real lucky 3 actually stopped and spoke with us about their babies and breeds!</p> <p>One was a nice woman on her way to a show ring with a gorgous boy japanese bobtail odd eye. He was so cute and well tny heheheh! </p> <p>Another was a Egypatian Mau breeder. He breeds the Bronze Mau which I was unaware of. I knew Mau's came in Silver and smoke but now I know they also come in bronze hehehe!</p> <p>Then their was a lady with an American shorthair named THe Fuzz heheh ginger classic pattern!</p> <p>But my fav was the coonie breeder! She had 3 5 month old babies showing! One cream with white mae and two tiny silver patched with white tabbies and the three are siblings. She walked over to a ring judging coonies and broke it down for us! Thar was so nice of her! </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/11065/page/5#post-271526 Sun, 02 Nov 2008 20:04:16 +0000 Tigerlilly 271526@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>AZ, I don't know the history of your headaches, but with persistent migraines, it is worth checking in with a neurologist at least once a year. Also, at 54, hormone issues don't help and maybe that aspect could be addressed.<br /> The other thing I'll throw out there, because there are scattered reports on this, if you take in a lot of nutrasweet products (anything with aspartame) try to get rid of it in your diet for a month or so and see if it makes any difference. </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/11065/page/5#post-271524 Sun, 02 Nov 2008 20:00:57 +0000 ILoveMyCats 271524@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>The longest I have had a headache to last is 3 to 4 days...seems like I have had them since I was a kid. The propranalol? is what they said that I might need since I have started waking up with them. Suppose to go back to doc and not done it but got my last prescription filled Wed. so will have to now. I smypathize for you! </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/11065/page/5#post-271523 Sun, 02 Nov 2008 19:59:31 +0000 Momma to 2 MaineCoons 271523@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>SM it was very fun! </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/11065/page/5#post-271522 Sun, 02 Nov 2008 19:59:03 +0000 SoxsMom 271522@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Doesn't mean you shouldn't get good care! Wish I could help.</p> <p>Hubby came through the door whimpering for food. He has been the only one manning the shop. They are losing people to another compay--they even interviewed him. They offer a bit more money but no security. Have to wait and see what happens. Anyway I have to go and feed the crew. I roasted a chicken! </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/11065/page/5#post-271520 Sun, 02 Nov 2008 19:53:44 +0000 AZDEBRA 5/27 & crew 271520@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>ILMC, yep Relpax doesn't work on me, wish it did, the Nasal Imitrex is nasty tasting. Even the Topamax doesn't help, and I take propranalol (?) daily as a preventative but its not working very well right now. </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/11065/page/5#post-271519 Sun, 02 Nov 2008 19:52:49 +0000 AZDEBRA 5/27 & crew 271519@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>jcat, I have some decent migraine meds, have actually taken just about the full range of meds avail with the doc's trying to see what works on me...Imitrex is about the quickest for me, actually the nasal spray followed by the pill doseage...can't do the shots, especially by myself because I wake up in the middle of full-blown headaches. </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/11065/page/5#post-271517 Sun, 02 Nov 2008 19:51:27 +0000 ILoveMyCats 271517@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Deb..have you tried Relpax for your headaches? That is what I take and most of the time it really helps. Ever once in awhile I end up having a really bad headache. I can usually tell if I am going to get one and I can take the pills...the only time it doesn't work is if I wake up with one. </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/11065/page/5#post-271515 Sun, 02 Nov 2008 19:50:41 +0000 AZDEBRA 5/27 & crew 271515@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>SM, yep I agree, would rather they help the soldiers that need it more. </p> <p>Oh good all the avatars popped back up, thought I was screwing up there and lost them. Eyes are not doing really well so see everyone a bit later. </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/11065/page/5#post-271514 Sun, 02 Nov 2008 19:49:56 +0000 jcat 271514@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Oh, Deb. I wish there was something I could do. Can they give you stronger pain meds? (I suppose, like my mum, you don't like taking strong meds...) I wish you a pain-free tomorrow -- hope you wake up and it's gone.</p> <p>{{{HUGS}}} </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/11065/page/5#post-271512 Sun, 02 Nov 2008 19:48:38 +0000 SoxsMom 271512@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>I am afraid it is typical of the military right now. The best doctors seem to be in the major medical centers--guess that is a good thing it is where they are most needed. </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/11065/page/5#post-271510 Sun, 02 Nov 2008 19:47:11 +0000 ILoveMyCats 271510@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Tigerlilly...how awful that they were both so sick but I am glad that they are well now. It can be very stressful having sick kitties. Your new baby is so sweet!!! Congrats on getting her!! I would spoil her rotten with those sad looking eyes!!! </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/11065/page/5#post-271508 Sun, 02 Nov 2008 19:46:03 +0000 AZDEBRA 5/27 & crew 271508@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Soxsmom, I have had shots of DHE that work great but not much time to get home afterwards. DM has some screwy docs right now, had to go there when we got hit by lightning and they were really a strange bunch. </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/11065/page/5#post-271507 Sun, 02 Nov 2008 19:45:08 +0000 SoxsMom 271507@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Thanks Deb--GD just mailed too. </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/11065/page/5#post-271505 Sun, 02 Nov 2008 19:44:16 +0000 AZDEBRA 5/27 & crew 271505@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>jcat, I am so tired of seeing the doctor about my headaches, I just suffer thru them mostly, take my Imitrex and ibuprofen ice pack for 20 minutes lying in a dark room and hope that it works. Haven't tried the newest migraine med yet but its basically the same thing as what I am doing now but in one pill. Keep hoping that I will grow out of them (the headaches), but kinda thinking now that if I haven't done it in 54 yrs it probably ain't gonna happen, lol. </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/11065/page/5#post-271504 Sun, 02 Nov 2008 19:42:50 +0000 SoxsMom 271504@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Deb the doctors on DM gave my husband an experimental drug for migraines when we were there--it was wonderful. Have no idea what it was but it wasn't a narcotic. It was a shot. Are you getting migraines or is this tied to something else? </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/11065/page/5#post-271503 Sun, 02 Nov 2008 19:42:39 +0000 jcat 271503@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>KK, I'll drive you there. We'll do them together, lol, and go seal-spotting.</p> <p>Tee hee, nope, never heard the llama poem till now!</p> <p>Ange, glad you had fun! </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/11065/page/5#post-271501 Sun, 02 Nov 2008 19:41:07 +0000 SoxsMom 271501@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>So spill it LV how was the show? </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/11065/page/5#post-271500 Sun, 02 Nov 2008 19:40:36 +0000 jcat 271500@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Tigerlillie, that is such a sad story. Thank goodness that beautiful cat found you. Don't you ever feel guilty about your beautiful Scottish fold kitten when you have done such wonderful things for your cats! Cute Linda is a lovely name, even if he is a boy! </p>
