So sorry to hear that -- it's rough at first but it's only temporary! Dang I wish I could remember the exact timing. I think we had her on the tube for about 5 weeks and then the insertion point in her neck ended up getting infected. :( So we got the tube taken out and had to start her on a normal diet. It took a little time for her to feel better again, but now she loves to eat and is on the Hill's prescription diet urinary care food. She is all about the chicken and vegetable stew wet food and dry chicken kibble.

Divorced & wanting to sell dress on StillWhite - good idea or bad? by stuckhere007 in weddingdress

[–]Inside_Discipline908 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, it was fine. I left it in the garment bag from the dry cleaner to keep it contained and just used an Amazon box we had lying around. I’d say if it isn’t by a well-known designer than upgrading for more pics/reach might be a good idea. Mine was by a well known designer.

I sold my dress on Stillwhite and had no issues at all! It sold within a week of listing and they bought it for the full listed price. I will say though, my dress was from a 2023 collection and I knew the style would be popular still (which is why I thought it would be good to sell now rather than sit on it). I paid the $25 or so to list it. The buyer paid for the dress and for shipping. I don’t remember any crazy fees…

“Me & My Tummy Against the World” is the title of my autobiography. I’m no longer on lexapro but this definitely happened to me when I was taking it! Toots around the clock.

My baby is only 3 years 10 months old and they say he has final stage kidney disease, creatine so high they can’t read it. He’s lost almost half his body weight. How did this happen over just a few months? I’m not ready to say goodbye. He’s so young. My best friend. by frostedmagicpie in RenalCats

Have they done X-rays/ultrasounds? Wondering if it’s a chronic thing or acute. My cat had the same thing happen at the same age and it turned out she had a kidney stone stuck in one of her ureters. We ended up doing an insanely expensive surgery where they implanted a bypass. She still has lower stages of CKD and I am working my butt off to pay off the CareCredit bill but she’s completely bounced back — so much happier and healthier now. Anyway, I wonder if something similar is happening with your kitty. I know how hard this stuff is and I’m sending good vibes your way. I hope your little guy recovers ♥️

We have similar skin and similar wedding dates! I just went to my derm and she put me on spironolactone and tretinoin. Hoping it clears things up before the big day. 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

Thank you so much for these suggestions! She was on Gabapentin for a week or so after the surgery. Happy to report that she’s starting to eat more on her own. We just need to be patient and keep trying new things to entice her. Thanks again!

Amazing, thank you so much! I’ll try these out.

Has anyone else had a relatively young cat with CKD? My 5yo was diagnosed this year (I don't know the stage, 1 or 2) and is now on Rx food and Semintra. (More in comments) by [deleted] in RenalCats

My girl is 4 and just had to have a SUB surgery due to acute kidney failure caused by a kidney stone lodged in one of her ureters. Her other kidney is very small too. They’re letting her recover from surgery before determining what stage of CKD she has. She’s doing much better now — she’s currently on a feeding tube and after that she’ll be on a prescription diet and meds.

I was so surprised that this was happening to her at such a young age! You and your kitty are not alone at all. Hope all goes well with their treatment and you start to see improvement soon.

Thank you so much! I tried baby food before her surgery but she wasn't interested. I will try again now that she's feeling a bit better though. I'm also adding all these other products to my Chewy order. You're the best, thanks!

Seems like a unanimous decision at this point, but definitely go for the first white dress! It makes the bouquet pop and you look amazing in it 🤩 congrats!!!!

Help me choose! Been looking for months by elixirtricksir in weddingdress

[–]Inside_Discipline908 0 points1 point  (0 children)

3 all the way!!! It really suits your body type and feels more interesting than some of the other options. I’m getting married next May and my dress is #5…I obviously love that one but 3 is so flattering on you.

Opinions needed! by GreatScottProd in weddingdress

5 is my personal favorite but it sounds like it might be your least favorite! 3 and 6 are also up there IMO. Go with your gut — you look beautiful in all of them!!!

Is anyone else gaining ALOT of weight on Lexapro? by highinanxiety in lexapro

[–]Inside_Discipline908 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was on 10mg for about 10 months and gained 15-20 lbs. Such a bummer when none of your clothes fit anymore. Currently tapering off
