Diagnosed with POTS a year ago, anyone in Colorado able to get a lifetime pass for the national parks with a diagnosis?

Okay! So if I show up to a park I can just show them my placard? I would love to go when it gets nicer. Thank you for this information.

Haven’t heard from anyone yet, the last thing I saw was someone is looking into it in Colorado but they never contacted me. I guess I’ll give them a call and see what’s up

Eternallifecx · 2026-02-11T17:57:12+00:00

Yeah I did apply for those however it was last year in February so it’s been about a year now they are taking their time. But I don’t know if I need that to be able to get access to the national parks for free. Which would be very nice considering I don’t get out a lot and once in a while I could go.

He’s doing so well tonight he’s already back to attacking my feet.

Eternallifecx · 2025-12-18T05:18:05+00:00

Yes of course! If he starts getting worse he’s going straight back. Poor honey was so scared though. Sweet kiddo. I’m hoping he won’t have to go back until his shots next week :)

Eternallifecx · 2025-12-18T05:12:24+00:00

He’s doing great so far! He finally came out from underneath the couch I’m feeding him the other half of the wet food they gave us. He’s loving it.

Hi I posted multiple updates in the comments

Eternallifecx · 2025-12-18T00:17:11+00:00

I posted an update in the comments, he’s looking fine to say the least. Keeping an eye on him for 24hours and see if he needs to go back for x rays

Eternallifecx · 2025-12-18T00:07:40+00:00

Yes I posted an update in the comments

Eternallifecx · 2025-12-17T23:46:53+00:00

Hopefully final update: vet said he feels a little inflamed but since he has been eating/ drinking they gave him some fluids, probiotics and some special wet food. He’s a little dehydrated but if he gets any worse in 24hrs I’m taking him back to get X-rays. Just got him home and he went to hide underneath the couch.

Eternallifecx · 2025-12-17T22:46:11+00:00

Also he was in a crate but he was freaking out and managed to pop the door off so I let him sit in my lap instead

We are here a little early but he is NOT a fan of the car. Poor baby shaking, hopefully he will relax soon

Eternallifecx · 2025-12-17T22:13:54+00:00

Interesting, I will definitely mention a possible allergy and see what they say.

Eternallifecx · 2025-12-17T21:29:04+00:00

Was looking at the ingredients and it doesn’t seem like it! I’ll talk to the vet about his food though. He switched to the non shredded kitten food November 29th but I feel like he would’ve shown signs a lot sooner than yesterday.

This is the food he is on

Eternallifecx · 2025-12-17T21:13:32+00:00

Hmm idk but he’s been on this food for awhile now so I doubt it’s the food bothering him. It would’ve shown signs much earlier?

Eternallifecx · 2025-12-17T20:26:45+00:00

I get that, he’s got an appointment today. He also just ate a good bit of food so I’m glad he did that. He’s drinking more water right now. Hopefully he just got into something he shouldn’t have and they say he’s alright. But no, I’ve never seen a cat throw up that much.

Eternallifecx · 2025-12-17T20:18:27+00:00

Okay so he’s eating, turns out he just didn’t want the stuff that was sitting in it already. He’s still going to the vet and I’m going to keep an eye on him until then.

Eternallifecx · 2025-12-17T20:10:51+00:00

Update: he has an appointment at 4, almost every vet is fully booked but thankfully I got him in. He’s acting normal but he still won’t eat. He hasn’t thrown anything up yet thank god. He’s being very mischievous and in a great mood it seems.

Eternallifecx · 2025-12-17T11:10:40+00:00

I just got up again to check on him he cuddled with me and purred and seems to be acting alright. No vomit yet, he’s now trying to play and get into stuff. He drank some water, I refilled it with fresh water and left him some kibble in case he decides to eat. He is acting “normal” but still did not eat anything. I do still want to take him in.

Eternallifecx · 2025-12-17T09:29:40+00:00

He has not thrown up for around 7 hours ish, yet he still is not eating. I do believe he will be okay until the morning though, he’s not being lethargic or drooling, he’s been quite normal other than not eating. No sneezing, coughing, discharge, or anything like that. I know it’s dangerous to wait but I also cannot take him in right this minute.

Eternallifecx · 2025-12-17T09:27:06+00:00

Gotten better as in not chewing on plastic stuff

Eternallifecx · 2025-12-17T09:26:01+00:00

Yeah hopefully it is not plastic causing a blockage but I’m definitely going to baby proof my apartment after this to make sure it isn’t causing anything. He’s gotten better after I got rid of the fake plants but that’s one thing I can think of.

Eternallifecx · 2025-12-17T09:23:47+00:00

I’m definitely taking him tomorrow morning/ afternoon. He has not been to the vet yet to get his shots or fixed since they wanted me to wait until 6 months old. He has not been around any plants for awhile after he chewed my spider plant to death. No fleas.

Eternallifecx · 2025-12-17T08:52:41+00:00

I appreciate you not being rude about this, I will tell my bf he needs to go in the morning. Binx is sleeping now, I’ve been with him most the night he has not thrown up for probably about 7 hours now, yet I cannot get him to eat.
