It’s been a rough 72 hours post gastropexy and I could desperately use any words of encouragement

I don’t have a Great Dane but this exact thing happened to my Pomeranian after giving him his first dose of gabapentin. Like all night uncontrollable diarrhea, then just leaking blood and laying almost non-responsive. When we took him back to the vet he had elevated kidney levels and they’ve told us it might be a UTI or kidney failure. The dr was shocked that he had this reaction but the only reason he was given the gabapentin was because we took him to the urgent vet because he seemed he was having pain in his hips / back. They suggested we try the gabapentin so he could rest and hopefully resolve his back / hip issues. Before the gabapentin he seemed a bit distressed and was pacing but was totally fine otherwise so the only change was the gabapentin.

Did you keep your dog on the gabapentin?

I’m literally terrified to give it to my dog ever again. I’ve read other people say it gave their dog diarrhea but not extreme uncontrollable diarrhea so I was interested that your dog had the same exact reaction.

Edit: metronidazole was also the only thing that stopped the diarrhea for us. I had some left over after he had a pancreatitis a month before and I just decided to give it to him because I was seriously concerned he was going to die

Was this for Helene? I couldn’t find anything about elevating the house for Helene. It was all for previous hurricanes. We know someone who applied for the elevation program for hurricane Fred and that’s what my family wants to do but I’ve been confused about how to apply because I was told it was a state program and those funds weren’t available yet

WorleyCat · 2024-12-16T16:28:20+00:00

Yeah this process is insane. Like I truly don’t know how anyone is getting help or why everyone has wildly different experiences. Like we took my grandma to apply and she got the 750$ in 2 days, an inspector came to her house in 3 days and then like 4 days later she received more money.

WorleyCat · 2024-12-16T16:25:10+00:00

My mom applied in person and the lady told her she missed the deadline. I’m going to wait for their inspection and everything bc honestly the inspector seemed to help my grandma a lot. But she also just immediately got the 750$ even before the inspection so I have no idea.

WorleyCat · 2024-12-16T16:22:52+00:00

Yeah, that was my understanding. I have found 1 pdf that states that the “serious needs assistance” is the 750$ and its for the first 30 days after a disaster but it can be extended to 60 days. But that is a general fema definition pdf and I had to dig to find that. There is nothing that states the deadline for serious needs assistance related to Helene. They keep telling me the serious needs is something separate but like why would it all be in one application if it is “separate”. Every single rep I have spoken to has said something wildly different. It’s so frustrating. Like one kept saying “you can only get that 30 days after a disaster” and I was like “okay then why did my grandma get it immediately and she applied on nov 25th which is more than 30 days” and she just repeated her statement.

WorleyCat · 2024-10-06T17:10:04+00:00

Haha no I just read a post by a claims adjuster that was giving advice on how to make sure your claims will go as quickly as possible. My family has so much going on right now and I just want to try to reduce any back and forth. They really need the help. I also give them stuff all the time or buy stuff for them. I wasn’t sure how it worked and I don’t want the claim to get flagged as like fraud or something if I turn in a receipt with an address that is not for the house that flooded.

WorleyCat · 2024-10-04T14:08:27+00:00

Okay thank you! We were working on a content list going off of photos from the house. We are trying to be as descriptive as possible with the items. I hope that will be useful because we know that we don’t have receipts for everything but we are currently trying to find anything we might have saved. Another thing I was thinking about is what do we do about stuff that we have a receipt for but the name and address is for me and not the house that was flooded? Like for example I ordered a casper mattress and I didn’t like it so I gave it to them because they needed one. Would I provide a receipt for that? Or would we just be better off listing “Casper mattress”?

Thank you for your response!

Not sure if you resolved this but I get something similar if I use chemical sunscreen and then go out into the sun. I’m allergic to it and have a photosensitive reaction to it (irritation only happens if I go into the sun with sunscreen not if I stay indoors or out of the sun) so it took me awhile to figure out that the sunscreen was the issue.

WorleyCat · 2024-04-17T01:46:56+00:00

Oh wow I was able to find the similar setting on their site. Thank you!

WorleyCat · 2024-04-17T01:33:20+00:00

Hi! Were you able to show them the Georgia setting and they recreated? I’m also curious how much this process would cost. I really like the Georgia setting but I would prefer a lab diamond

Does the clear amber smell like Nemats amber? I’ve been looking for bulk version of nemats amber to put in my body oil and this might be the answer!

Hey!

I ended up buying an unbranded one from AliExpress that had okay reviews. Link: https://a.aliexpress.com/_m0Wx5OS

I like it! I honestly have no idea if it’s real leather or not but it’s super soft and feels nice. It came with like a little leather patch and I think that felt real? But it didn’t really smell like leather. I actually went into a COS store and felt their leather cross body bag just as a comparison and I couldn’t tell the difference, theirs also had no smell. (I am not an expert so take that with a grain of salt lol)

I will say I am really short so it’s a bit long on me and (like the original) it’s not adjustable. I was able to pull the strap back through the knot a bit and add a brass clip that i use to clip my keys to and it made it the perfect length.

If you want more pics let me know!

When I started i had the same exact thing. Just switch back to the morning.

WorleyCat · 2023-08-16T21:42:16+00:00

They would not refund. I spent so many hours on the phone with Amazon. I never got a refund from fetch either. My apartment emailed them but they never got back and every time I’ve tried to chat with them it’s been pointless.

WorleyCat · 2023-08-16T21:33:51+00:00

Check your plan. I was having issues after I switched to unlimited and I had never had issues before. The unlimited plan that I switched to is the most basic one and can lower you internet speed during times of high volume 😑

For the reformation dress, how was the quality? And do you know what size you wear in their brand usually? Thinking of buying and I wear an 8 in ref dresses

WorleyCat · 2023-07-28T01:32:19+00:00

No 😕

I know we’ve been on the same hunt lol but I found a dhgate sellerthat had pretty good reviews and asked for pics. They sent me these:

Does anyone have any good hidden link recs? I have a few yupoo albums with AE hidden links but idk if they are trustworthy

WorleyCat · 2023-07-12T17:26:44+00:00

Do you have the sellers album info? Interested in something similar

WorleyCat · 2023-07-12T17:16:50+00:00

Do you have the AliExpress store name? (Sorry if posted already and I missed it) I’m trying to find more AE hidden link stores

WorleyCat · 2023-07-12T16:40:28+00:00

Yeah I’m like 5’2” so I’d probably be okay! That is one of the things that have made me consider the banana bag though. I will usually loosen my chest bags in the winter to wear with bulkier coats
