Of course he's OK, he's a silly!

I think the' no water' was to keep him from drowning if he had a seizure and landed with his face in the bowl. Fluids, however, would be a very good thing now.

Ask what they would do if they kept him for observation. It might be something like, another sedative if he's still seizing hard. Just get as much info as you can before you take him out.

good advice Jess.......very good, from our Resident Most Logical Scientist :) I had not thought of the reason for no water in the cage!!!!!!!!!!!

Permanent seizing/convulsing should be over -

I can totally deal with a brain-damaged Li'l Peanut w/ occasional tremor/stumble :wub:

he IS a Silly :wub:

Gee Psuessly.....I'm so very glad that your li'l Peanut is hanging in there. I know all about the heartacke of not being able to afford vet treatments! It's absolutley outrageous these days! :angry: I've paid for my moms cat when she couldn't afford it...he had pneumonia and a rhinovirus and got dehydrated because he couldn't drink. Also paid for my son's dog....the "emergency vet" would not even let them in the door unless they had $100 up front! That is absolutely the lowest, most disgusting attitude for a medical practitioner! Your babies are your babies....2 legs or 4. You have my prayers for a complete recovery :(:)

Hi Molly! Nice to meet you. Hope we will be hearing from you often and get a chance to get to know you better. I'm still phiggering out the rest of this crew :lol:

Hope eveyone is having a shiny, wonder-filled day!

This whole nightmare episode is making me ask MANY questions about chemical flea control. . . . . .....I have used the liquid dropper things (that you run down the cat's back) on my cats for as long as I have had them.....and the dogs get the yearly pesticide in a combined tablet with their heartworm medication. Perhaps I should start a new thread on this, as I would love to take a "natural" approach, as long as it is effective.

Any Psillies here know anything about alternative ways to stop flea infestation on our outdoor animals? Do you sell anything, POeter?

I read so many things last night, class action lawsuits and such (Hartz company is particularly evil, apparently - so beware :( )

One woman gave her kittens a bath in flea shampoo and one died very shortly thereafter. :( Tumours that were biopsied often contained HUGE amount of the concentrated pesticide in them.

I was also thinking I'd start a thread on this, with a warning, but, don't want everyone to know how stupid I am, just yet. :(

I had a dear friend say to me last night "well WHY did you do that? didn't you think about what you were doing?" :huh: - - I mean PHARQUE, obviously I have deep regret and was NOT being careful - - when everyone else had been so supportive and sympathetic. I sort of yelled at her :ph34r:

I don't even know how parents can live with the guilt of causing an accident to a child. :(

Just heartbreaking.

Well Sills, gotta go do a bunch of errands and procure food before going to get Wee P since I will not leave him for 48 hours after that......

Borax in your carpets and sofas will keep the fleas down. Wash bedding often. Some people give their dogs a little bit of garlic BUT DON"T GIVE CATS GARLIC OR ONIONS. Many have a genetic mutation that will lead to a fatal bleeding disorder (if I'm remembering correctly) if they ingest members of the onion family.

Some people give their pets brewers yeast. I don't know how well the food additives work, but you could try.

      Buckwheat

      I agree, there can be contamination at many points--milling is another possible source of contamination for any flours.

      Buckwheat

      By trents · Posted

      Keep in mind that with manufactured food products, "gluten free" doesn't equate to no gluten. Things that are naturally gluten free can be cross-contaminated with gluten in the field, in shipping and in processing. In the U.S. companies can use the gluten free label as long as the product doesn't exceed 20ppm of gluten. That amount still may cause a reaction in some people.

      Inconclusive results

      By deanna1ynne · Posted

      Dd10 was tested for celiac four years ago bc two siblings were dx’d (positive labs and biopsies). Her results at the time were positive ema  and ttg (7x the UL), but a negative biopsy. We checked again three months later and her ttg was still positive (4x the UL), but ema and biopsy were negative. Doc said it was “potential celiac” and to keep eating gluten, but we were concerned about harming her growth and development while young and had her go gluten-free because we felt the labs and ema in particular were very suggestive of early celiac, despite the negative biopsies. She also had stomach aches and lethargy when eating it. We just felt it’d be better to be safe than sorry. Now, four years later, she doesn’t want to be gluten-free if she doesn’t “have to be,” so underwent a 12 week gluten challenge. She had labs done before starting and all looked great (celiac panel all negative, as expected.) Surprisingly, she experienced no noticeable symptoms when she began eating gluten again, which we felt was a positive sign. However, 12 weeks in, her labs are positive again (ttg 4x the UL and ema positive again as well). Doc says that since she feels fine and her previous two biopsies showed nothing, she can just keep eating gluten and we could maybe biopsy again in two years. I was looking up the ema test and the probability of having not just one but two false positives, and it seems ridiculously low.  Any advice? Would you biopsy again? She’s old enough at this point that I really feel I need her buy-in to keep her gluten-free, and she feels that if the doc says it’s fine, then that’s the final word — which makes me inclined to biopsy again and hope that it actually shows damage this time (not because I want her to have celiac like her sisters, but because I kind of think she already does have it, and seeing the damage now would save her more severe damage in the long run that would come from just continuing to eat gluten for a few more years before testing again.)  Our doc is great - we really like him. But we are very confused and want to protect her. One of her older sibs stopped growing and has lots of teeth problems and all that jazz from not catching the celiac disease sooner, and we don’t want to get to that point with the younger sis. fwiw- she doesn’t mind the biopsy at all. It’s at a children’s hospital and she thinks it’s kind of fun. So it’s not like that would stress her out or anything.

      Thanks for the replies. I already use a gluten-free brand of buckwheat flakes I occasionally get itchy bumps. I'm still reviewing all my food products. I occasionally eat prepackaged gluten-free crackers and cookies, so I'll stop using those. I use buckwheat flakes and Doves Farm flour as a base for baking. Would you recommend eliminating those as well? It's a constant search.

      Frequent nausea after gluten-free diet

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Gluten free food is not fortified with vitamins and minerals as regular food is.  Vitamin deficiencies are common especially in recently diagnosed persons,  Get a 25(OH)Vitamin D blood test. And work on raising it.  The safe upper blood level is around 200 nmol/L.    "Low serum levels of 25(OH)D have been associated with increased risk of autoimmune disease onset and/or high disease activity. The role of vitamin D in autoimmune diseases   🏋️‍♂️Good job!   I find the commercial milk will give me mild stomach burn at night, while pasture/grassfed only milk does not bother me at all.  While you are healing, listen to your body.  If it hurts to eat something, eat something else.  You may be able to eat it later, or maybe it is just not good for you.  Lower your Omega 6 to 3 ratio of what you eat.  Most omega 6 fatty acids are inflammation causing.    The standard american diet omega 6:3 ratio is estimated at upward of 14:1.  Thats why fish oil works
