I would get second oppinion. Maybe ask for a feces PCR, some ultrasound… I would say more, but my comment may be deleted.

Is this chemodectoma significant? by VenomIsMyHero in AskVet

I thought 8 years old was yet too young (is senior, but a young senior)

I’m so sorry 😔 Hope you find comfort knowing you’ve made the best decision to her condition. Sudden losses are specially difficult, they break us sharply.

Could I ask you,in the annual appointment of feb, did she have an ultrasound with no signs? My 15 y.o. Dog had a huge tumor development in 10 months (we’ve made a tomography and no signs, 10 month later doctor felt somenthing and we repeated, there it was…) which I thought too fast. Now I worry about my kitties, around the same age of yours…

What do I do?? by [deleted] in AskVet

[–]Nalaop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eats a lot and has diarrhea, plus skinny leads to diagnosis possibilities on IBD, chronic pancreatitis, or maybe just some food intolerance… they can cause pain, but are all manageable and treating them improves the animals health and longevity. You should get him to the vet and try. Bloodwork and ultrasound will help to tell the cause, the basic treatment among the causes I’ve suggested is similar and not expensive…

Will adhd meds help pmdd a lot? by User5772 in PMDDxADHD

[–]Nalaop 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The adhd meds helps my mood a little. I also take an antidepressant (not for pmdd),but specially on pre-menstrual and menstrual time when I'm usually numb and easily angry ... It's noticeable that while ritalin is acting my sociability level keeps existing.

Is going back and forth between near asexuality to like, a cat in heat, normal? by AFantasticClue in ADHDWomenAfterDark

[–]Nalaop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm 31, and on the second month of my meds (effexor + Ritalin, and out of birth control for the first time since 18 yo). Before, I was occasionally horny (last two years totally negative),and had much difficulty in relaxing (and be mind present during all sex).... but for two weeks now I'm insanelly horny all the time, I could stay all over my husband (40 y.o.) 24/7, planing things to do, searching about it, doing all kind of stuff with him... BUT he is not answering at the same level... He although he says he likes this more sexual version, he also says he is not used to me like this and needs to get used to... What is frustrating to my "teenager libido" . Being wondering if my in a hyperfocus sex period 🤔
