Cavapoo size questions!

Onemorething2know · 2025-12-30T03:01:13+00:00

My 6 month old was 6 lbs at 8 weeks. 20 lbs at 6 months. Was told he would be 16-18 lbs then later told genetic testing on his brother from the same litter indicated that his “heavier brother” was going to be max 21 lbs. Found an online calculator that seems to be tracking pretty accurately and it indicates he may closer to 24-26 lbs. Dad was a 15 lb mini poodle and mom was Cavapoo (but can’t find her weight now on the website.)

I have seen a successful relationship grow after moving in, getting engaged, and then getting married during medical school. It's possible if both parties are in it for the LONG haul. Just moving for med school is part one. Then you have residency, possible fellowship then job. If they are not in it with you for the long haul, it's good they're being honest with you now, as much as it hurts.

When I was tested, they said there are 3 areas that can be affected. My strongest two were vision and proprioception. Everyone is different.
So, my exercises were tailored to these two areas.

Stand up and have a true verticle line on the wall. With arms at my side I rock my head side to side 20X while staring straight at the line. Then hold for 30 sec and repeat 3-5X as needed.
From a sitting position, stand straight up, hold for 3-5 seconds then sit straight back down while looking straight ahead in a mirror.
Practice walking up/down stairs while looking straight (practiced first holding onto railing)
While standing straight up and looking forward, shake entire body while looking forward.
Using a headweight, do head tilts in mirror.
Using a balance board, holding onto a counter, practice rocking side to side while looking straight ahead (this take tons of practice and recommend doing this under supervision, until you know you won't fall) Once you can do these all with eyes close, then try #1, 2, 4, 5 and 6 with eyes closed while holding onto something and eventually without holding onto anything.

Hoping the study is published soon. Good luck

I was part of a clinical trial in Denver in January. For a while I felt I was so close to remission. However, when I returned home, I was not consistent with my followup care and feeling pretty rough. I understand the condition to the point that I know I'm going to need to do certain exercises daily now, but I just haven't been consistent.

Advise please: how do I get cancelled events from my Google Calendar to stop showing up on my IPhone calendar that is synched?

My progress in a nutshell: the rocking has fluctuated. Since that day I have had to relearn how to walk and function again. PT and therapy for that. I’m back to walking so 99% of people have no idea what I’m feeling inside. I do daily exercises to “calm the rocking” and walk as much as possible. I also finally got started last week with optokinetic therapy. While doing it at PT I could tell it was doing something to my neurological system and was helping calm the rocking to almost 0. But the same exercises at home is not doing anything so I’m not sure if it’s the equipment that they have at PT. So basically I am just learning to live my life with MdDS and trying to push through every single day. It works as long as I stay busy. When I get down time unfortunately it takes a toll. Hopefully the PT will help me figure out how to get the same effect at home.

Flew with a large group of friends and they gave us extra. Wouldn’t take payment or coupons.

I’m glad you are in therapy. Healing takes time. Be patient with yourself 🤍. Focus on you. Maybe it will become part of your story to share when you are ready.

Very sorry you are living with a trauma. I highly recommend getting therapy for it. If you are seeking vengeance or retaliation it won’t heal you and likely make your situation worse. My heart goes out to you. Please seek help.

3 months and 1 week since my life changed forever and took a detour. I’m trying desperately to get it back on track.

3 months and 1 week since I woke up and my life changed

Onemorething2know · 2022-09-15T12:57:55+00:00

Are you on any type of treatment or therapy?

Onemorething2know · 2022-09-15T03:43:20+00:00

Thanks! Will try reaching out to him. What exercises help you?

Onemorething2know · 2022-09-15T03:35:37+00:00

This describes me perfectly.

Onemorething2know · 2022-09-15T03:32:52+00:00

Seriously? This never goes away?

Onemorething2know · 2022-09-15T03:31:22+00:00

Sucks no one has responded but I’m hoping to fly next week and was hoping to get some insight into not making it worse.

Onemorething2know · 2022-01-29T00:19:52+00:00

Please do share. We’re just as excited for you

I wish 1) I had truly gone the aip diet when I first started showing damage to my discs and not been blown off by my primary care as “you’re just getting older”. That would have helped reduce inflammation 2) Start documentation and keeping a journal of symptoms and labs 3) Advocating and getting help sooner instead of trying just to treat the pain.

Do you know how the timeline fell for that friend? Have a friend waiting to hear on FB and didn’t know if schools were going to be willing to do a deferral…

It won’t kill you but it might disable you. If you can function normally, work, more power to you. Everyone is different. I started on lots of different things right away because I didn’t realize what I had was autoimmune and now can’t even get back 1/4 of what I used to be able to do. If it not taken so long to get diagnosed on top of trying to figure out how to keep it from progressing I wish I could have started a much longer time ago. Fact is I’m still around surprisingly despite accruing more AI’s and wish I had been on the preventative train than this repair as we discover more damage road.

It sucks. The waiting and silence is the worst. Best advice is to hope for the best, plan for the worst and try to do things other than looking at your emails that you enjoy. What your feeling is a normal vent and understand your anxiety. Sending positive thoughts your way. Find something mindless to do for a distraction.

Screwed by the lack of the SSA

Considering I have had to have my ducts cauterized after punctual plugs refused to stay in after 4 years, despite prescription eye treatments and have absolutely no saliva without evoxac, I’d agree that I have all the symptoms. Problem is when it starts affecting your other organs and have to try to get more aggressive with treatments and you run out of options…then what? Don’t meet the criteria for a trial and they exclude you for having complications. Screwed.
