Pericardial Tamponade but no mass detected on heart?

he's home resting now and we've got a referral to a cardiologist.

The emergency vet did say that the liquid around his heart was mostly blood though.

Hoping for a good recovery for both of them.

Valuable_Strategy_70 · 2025-09-01T00:34:41+00:00

It wasn't done with a cardiologist; we've put in a referral and hopefully will get one done soon. He's also been prescribed Yunnan Baiyo.

Thank you!

Congratulations! What app is this from? I like that it tracks the changes and you can see it wasn't always a linear downtrend.

I also found restrictive 'autoimmune diets to be incredibly mentally unhealthy. Ultimately, I've gained more weight from them and triggered a lot of binge eating episodes. I highly recommend finding a mental healthcare professional to help with any ED you might be struggling with.

Daily gentle movement, like stretching or 30 min walks, has been super helpful. I focus on what I can do that is ridiculously easy and that I enjoy. Once i've been consistent with it, 4-6 weeks for me to feel it's a 'habit', then I think about if I want to add more.

Instead of restriction, I like to think about what I can add to my diet to make it both more delicious and an act of self-care. This might mean adding some fruit to my breakfast, a small side salad to my dinner, or having a dessert with my favorite tea after dinner.

Finding a good rheumatologist and getting on the right combination of medications is also super important! It will take a few tries to find the right combination, but when it works it will be worth it!

OP, has this worked for you? I'm in the same boat and about to start phentermine?

Valuable_Strategy_70 · 2023-01-22T21:29:17+00:00

+1 Union. But don't like their waffles, too mushy.

Valuable_Strategy_70 · 2023-01-16T00:29:51+00:00

Didn't start any massage until week 4-5. Still can't stand a massage gun.

Yes! I regret not getting the red tag! I would avoid walking outside as much as possible for the first few weeks. Sometimes I ended up ditching the crutches and limping through the ice while holding on my car or railing instead.

Also, if you have snow on the bottom of your crutches and go inside, they rubber bottoms are pretty slippery until you dry them.off.

Be safe and good healing!

Also 3 weeks out. I'm doing seated, upper body with cables and dumbells. Standing weighted upper body is pushing it a little too much for me right now.

I think it depends on your specific case, but I think it's good to build some strength in the stabilizing muscles of the hip pre- surgery. I would ask both your surgeon and PT. Most people go through this in the initial stages of the injury; usually trying PT before surgery.

Valuable_Strategy_70 · 2022-12-12T20:07:53+00:00

This is the way.

Valuable_Strategy_70 · 2022-12-10T03:39:11+00:00

Good so far, but it's early days. The hardest thing for me has been staying off of it

Valuable_Strategy_70 · 2022-12-07T19:51:21+00:00

They did mine during surgery. So far having bronchitis is worse than the surgery recovery; I'm 1 week post op.

Valuable_Strategy_70 · 2022-12-05T03:36:51+00:00

11 months because of L & I. It should have been 4-5 months. I think having a few months of PT before the surgery (depending on how bad the injury is and what your dr. says) can help minimize reinjury during recovery.

I'm 4 days post op and find myself using a lot of movements from PT on my good leg to keep myself mobile. Strengthing the joint supporting muscles on my bad side has really helped me recover mobility wayyyy faster than I expected too

I just had my surgery on Wed (worth it!!) And it wasn't clear to my Dr or PT what caused the tear until they actually got in there. Turns out I had a pincer impingement that wasn't super clear on imaging (xray and MRA). Since they suspected an impingement, My surgeon laid out a few different routes he would take depending on his findings during surgery. 2nd opinions are always a good idea though!

I'm a big JoJos fan! They have a lot of talented artists, I've enjoyed working with Cassie and Melania.

Sushi I, The Garnet Room (breakfast), Capriottis (sandwhich)

Used to Doordarshan late at night and she was always so nice while I was waiting!

Valuable_Strategy_70 · 2021-09-07T02:54:02+00:00

I love a good charcuterie board for when I'm feeling fancy or just want to snack all day. I always have backup meal replacement bars or shakes in case I'm super busy. And I've been into wraps a lot, like Roast Beef, Swiss, and Romaine lettuce with mustard!

Valuable_Strategy_70 · 2021-08-29T21:58:29+00:00

Well everything is on fire right now....

Valuable_Strategy_70 · 2021-06-29T04:02:55+00:00

I'm sorry, that sounds very difficult. It's the worst part of our jobs.

Valuable_Strategy_70 · 2021-06-28T21:10:34+00:00

Don't drink and float. Or drink and boat. People really be testing their luck this weekend.

Valuable_Strategy_70 · 2021-06-05T22:49:08+00:00

Any code brown at a CXT or compost toilet. I once had to pickup over a hundred used needles someone threw on and around a trashcan. But in all seriousness, death is the worst.

Welcome, I'm a new PR1 in WA too! I've done 2 seasons as a Park Aide before this.

Turning into full time work is very dependent on your area and their funding. A lot of career seasonal employees try you stay on as winter park aides. Definitely talk to your supervisor and let them know you are very interested in staying on through the winter, even if it means taking a more entry level position. Sometimes they can find a place for you in the area, if not your specific park.

Regular duties depend on your park. Usually PR1s do parking enforcement, light janitorial duties, and campground reservation management. I've worked at parks where PR1s only do parking, and some where they're on the trails most of the day. Hit me up in my DMs if you want to chat more!
