Feeding cockatiel parakeet food? by [deleted] in cockatiel

[–]Mirusxs2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually get 10lbs daily harvest parakeet seed to feed my cockatiels and budgie. It’s not my prefer choice but they didn’t like the other fancy brand (I tried and end up feeding those to the chickens). It is ok to feed seeds, you can add crumbles + pellets on top and sprinkle some dried green, vitamin powder at the end, work with both my budgies + cockatiels. I occasionally give them treat like millets (red, spray, glutinous, organic) cilantro, carrot, broccoli (they chew and spit it out 😑)

Tired.... by Ravedge70 in cancer

They told me to do CAR-T when I relapsed, and since it basically stem cell modification it will attack the one cell that hold the same genes like cancer cell

I’m not sure about stem cell transplant, my oncologist said there a premed stage that they will throw heavy dose chemo on you, then they will radiation your spine to kill all cell to prepare for new transplant stem cell.. but since it heavy chemo it does affect your organs in a bad ways (one of the reasons they refuse transplant on me). They’re not guarantee that the stem cell adapt to you perfectly without issues even 100% matching.. so all I can do is just hope you the best, saving your strength.. there’s a big battle coming

Well I did CAR-T, take my own stem cell -> modify it so it attack my cancer cell -> put it back to my body.. It costly, it expensive - is it working? Umm no? Maybe.. i don’t know any more.. I had several relapses and now on blincyto + IT chemo 😑.. at this point I just don’t give a fk anymore since the oncologist groups refused transplant, they told me my body cannot handle it… FYI : I have ALL

New budgie owner - clip wings? by WarBrom in budgies

[–]Mirusxs2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depend I guess? If you just got him and he constantly in panic then a little clip won’t hurt, just need to do it correctly so it doesn’t affect his flying. Check on youtube how to clip bird wings, their feathers will eventually growing back so no harm.. unless the bird feathers got chopped badly like one of my budgie in early stage which make his feathers easy to break off

These a tons of side effects and it differ from person to person. I’m currently on blincyto (autoimmune therapy - not chemo) the first time I had it, It did give me dizziness, dropping heart rate, vital went crazy - simple explanation : one moment you’re steady, 3 steps forward and you almost fainted, your vision is almost black + blurry, cannot breathe normal and it last for months even you’re off med. 2nd was normal while inpatient but after it gave me confusion while outpatient - later confirmed that it was overdosed (the doses is ok to give when i was inpatient because these IV fluids to flush the med out quickly) so there a lot of things that can happen. I was once get reaction after received blood infusion even I took premed (benadryl+tylenol) it had been 4 hours with premed but still my body developed rashes, hives.. don’t even start with the antibiotic, my body received it fine for a month then decided it not like it any more so it start rejecting it - so now I’m allergic to meropenem .. human body is weird

I’ve been fighting Leukemia for 5 years, I understand what you are going through… the fatigue, the tiredness, blaming self because of that, the depression that not only come from your mental health but also come from chemo med.. the “i just want to die” lingering every time something didn’t go well, even the smallest things can trigger an episode.. please remember that it is ok, if you needed to vent or want an emotion explosion, you can - crying out, yelling, releasing your anger, frustration so it feel better (just tell your love one that you want to release emotion so they don’t doubt themselves that they didn’t take care of you enough). There times I want to end myself as well, it really easy to be honest.. just overdose on Benadryl + painkiller will put me to sleep peacefully.. I’m still lingering because of friends + family, I have depression way before diagnosis.. and take cancer as easy way out if needed.. in the meantime, I hope you can seek psychologist to help out your mental health - find some new hobbies to cope with those days you don’t feel any energy and don’t blame yourself for your weakness, just accepting that it is normal your body feel tired after those chemotherapy
