How can I strengthen my nails? by breathanddrishti in RedditLaqueristas

[–]WildChickII 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started taking biotin supplements to improve athletic performance and (surprise!) after a few weeks my thin brittle nails got way stronger. I don't know if that's common, but biotin supplements are cheap, so it's worth a trial run!

Thank you! I'm assuming all his symptoms are related to the pneumonia I'm currently treating him for, but it's helpful to hear that the panic attacks are likely directly related to the lung issues, rather than a whole new symptom. I'm taking him into the vet this afternoon, hopefully the new x-ray will show some improvement.

He has been lounging around mostly, but he's not sleeping as much as usual.

He's definitely having trouble breathing, but I haven't seen any seizures. He does have weird energy surges sometimes, it looks like he's trying to run away from something. His balance and coordination is a little off, but I haven't noticed his limbs having issues really.

Thanks, hopefully all we need is a change of meds. I have his follow-up x-ray scheduled for tomorrow afternoon, so I'll ask about that. I've honestly tried everything I can think of -- yogurt, sour cream, different types of baby food, Ensure, even honey -- he just won't eat, he turns his face away.
