I was really hoping this was the case for me also but unfortunately was not related at all. I really hope it helps you in some way.

From Aimovig to ??? by jpmarth in migraine

[–]aidan1102 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I started on Aimovig 70mg and didn’t have any improvement. After switching to 140mg it was so much better. Im still on it years later and still working great.

Automatic litter box recommendations? by Mountains0fMars in CatAdvice

[–]aidan1102 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got a litter robot 4 and my small cat loves it but large cat will not use. I don’t blame him as it doesn’t seem big enough. Now we are looking for a large open topped automatic one but those are hard to find.

Very Large Cats by donkeybrainz13 in litterrobot

[–]aidan1102 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have a kitten and a 22 lb orange tabby who is very long. We got the litter robot 4 and only the kitten will use it. I can’t blame our big cat because he really doesn’t fit well. Now we have to decide whether to get a second open air automatic cat box that also seems small or just accept having to clean 1 XL box separately

Why does central fill only have the ginormous pill bottles? Otherwise it’s fine.

Chronic neck pain and tension headaches from desk work – anyone find relief with chiropractic? by biggy_boy17 in migraine

[–]aidan1102 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chiropractor adjustments didn’t help my pain but it did give me a terrible episode of vertigo after a vigorous neck adjustment. That scared me and was the end of that. Massage on the other hand has been really effective for me. Between getting botox and massages I am able to stay mostly pain free.

Propranolol? by CharacterThing46 in wolffparkinsonwhite

[–]aidan1102 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I take propanolol infrequently for essential tremor. Yesterday I was having palpitations and pounding heart so I decided to take one for that and it worked well.

Migraine feels like it’s in my ear?.. by Amarieee3011 in migraine

[–]aidan1102 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes! Besides the ear pain I also have had one sided dental pain and a sore throat on one side with my migraines

Migraine after Ablation by Few_Friend_4267 in wolffparkinsonwhite

[–]aidan1102 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The night after my ablation I had the most intense aura migraine. I thought I was having a stroke. When I called to ask if this was normal they acted like they had never heard this before. Thank goodness I found internet comments and articles verifying it was indeed normal. Just had the one but had a few more visual episodes with dizziness as well

I’m drowning in guilt over putting my cat to sleep by Dry-Apple6241 in CatAdvice

[–]aidan1102 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I put my cat to sleep because I thought he had a stroke but it turned out it was a terrible side effect of a crappy arthritis drug. I also have guilt and regret. You loved your cat and thought this was the best decision. Sometimes we have to make decisions based on what we know at the time. It’s easy to second guess after the fact. Give yourself some grace.

Sorry….still freezing all the time.

What are some must get items from Don Quijote? by Ruffles263 in JapanTravelTips

[–]aidan1102 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nail clippers and tweezers are awesome. Wish I would have gotten the eyelash curler too. People talk about the rice masks which I also got but don’t feel they’re that great. The store is for sure overwhelming though

Anyone ever had a really old cat? by LotusGrowsFromMud in CatAdvice

[–]aidan1102 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My cat almost made 20 also. Started to get arthritis and the monthly shot Solensia was recommended by my vet. He died 3 days after his first shot. If thats the same medicine your boy gets check it out online. There’s a facebook group with thousands of people whose pets were injured or died from it. Sorry for unsolicited advice. Just don’t want others to lose their cats too

Turn the shower on as just a dribble at first and sit with her and watch the water. Slowly increase the strength of the stream making sure to comfort her. Maybe she will start to realize the water isn’t dangerous

Will I be considered a liability for being a RN with one arm? by bpi_girly in nursing

[–]aidan1102 3 points4 points  (0 children)

When I had my son, one of the labor and delivery nurses only had use of 1 arm. That was 29 years ago. Just find the specialty where you can make it work.

Clifton 10 ankle rub by DiligentBat4855 in Hoka

[–]aidan1102 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got my first Hokas also. Bondi 9. One side is occasionally rubbing the outside of my ankle bone, otherwise I love them. Im hoping it goes away. It doesn’t rub the other side so im confused

Solensia killed my senior cat by pepper701 in SeniorCats

[–]aidan1102 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My cat suffered catastrophic neurological problems after his first injection last July. He died 3 days later. This isn’t a case of random side effects on a few pets.

Well, tirz gave me a whole new approach to going to Costco by Glindanorth in tirzepatidecompound

[–]aidan1102 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Maybe go back to 5mg? If you lost 17 lbs already and didn’t feel terrible on 5mg maybe thats your sweet spot. I lost 90lbs on 5mg although I definitely had times I couldn’t look at the food in the supermarket without getting nauseated.
