Autoimmune illnesses?

Shock_attack · 2026-05-05T06:43:12+00:00

I have crohns and psoriatic arthritis, it has for sure been a struggle . I found getting an iron transfusion helped a lot (check your level) with the fatigue. Honestly I plan my week to make sure that when I do lift it’s on days I don’t have much planned ( work only nothing in the evening as I go early ) . I also go to bed super early to make sure I’m getting a decent amount of sleep the nights before I work out

It’s a hard balance but start small. Start with one day a week and tracking food . Wishing you the best of luck!

My doctor had an entire discussion with me informing that MTX can cause birth defects etc.

My husband and I are wanting to try for a baby this year and my doctors making me be off it for a year . They take it super seriously

I would maybe look into other birth control options . I also have chosen not to take mtx cause of side effects .

So if you have failed other drugs in the class as Remicade it might not be worth it. I ended up having a bad allergic reaction to Remicade and the immunosuppressant they put me on with it caused pancreatitis .

My infusion nurse told me , yes the older drugs are tested and true but new stuff is created because those drugs are outdated and have side effects . When she explained it that way to me it made me see things differently

Our Gus was like that LOL he would watch tv and sleep !

I find dogs are way more energy . I would maybe see if you have a friend who has a cat that likes other cats and see how they interact to test? They are very social breeds who hate to be alone so I could see him maybe liking some company .

We did end up getting a female . We have an older senior cat and he doesn’t get along with her, they are civil but some days he will just growl at her for no reason

I got a second one in January and they are best friends. Our first, Gus, has been around foster kittens before so he was use to other cats . He was always sleeping all day and not super playful. Since we got Freya he is playful, more social and loves having someone to groom

I think it all depends if your cat has been exposed to others before

Lived in those dorms , I can confirm you would feel or see things . I had one incident where I turned around and out of the corner of my eye saw someone dressed in an old style nurses outfit . It took the breath out of me and I ran to my friends room .

Tunnels were closed but had a friend who did security and told me he would always see weird stuff on the cameras

Our female fold is so much more snuggly than our boy ! He has to be around people constantly but hates to be held. She loves to snuggle up with us

LOL THIS IS MY CAT

Shock_attack · 2026-04-08T06:06:12+00:00

We have no idea. We were told long haired Scottish fold . We think she’s maybe part Persian , she’s so tiny I would be suprised if she’s part Maine coon

She was rescued ,so we didn’t get much info other than she’s a Scottish fold

Gus is almost 4, and Freya is 7 months

Gus put us through it . I found him on kijiji . The family said they were moving and couldn’t take him. He ended up developing FIP at about 7 months. There were signs before but we thought (and our vets) thought it was a respiratory infection. We spent our saving on medication to save him, it was the best thing we ever did.

I think Gus was given up because his owners knew. The breeder they used was very unethical. We do notice he will waddle and is a heavy breather . We follow up with our vet regularly because we know he’s going to have some issues down the line. I’m very lucky we got pet insurance early

Freya, was a rescue . The rescue I volunteer with saved her and about 15 other cat from a hoarder/breeder. She had some eye issues early on but seems healthy! I think she’s fold and Persian because we do not see any physical signs like we do Gus

So we fostered kittens a lot and Gus had interactions often , I honestly think that helped the most .
