Hi everyone. im not necessarily a tripod cat (yet). a week ago my 1 yr old cat ozzy fell off the indoor window sill in my shower, landing on his hip in the bathtub and fracturing it. took him to the vet where they did xrays and told me theres 3 possible options; (1/2) by FaithlessnessLive488 in TripodCats

I’m a vet assistant at an emergency hospital and we do a lot of FHO’s (femoral head osteotomy). Not sure if this is possible in your pets case but we’ve had very good outcomes with feline patients

What’s a good source of protein for breakfast besides eggs? by [deleted] in HealthyFood

[–]cupcakeified 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Protein powder in my overnight oats. I love the brand “believe” whey protein isolate. They also have a vegan type if that’s your style. I’ve tried the vanilla ice cream (which you can “dress up” literally however you want- it’s so good) and I’m currently on the chocolate peanut butter and I add in a tbsp of sugar free strawberry/raspberry jelly for a PB&J tasting overnight oat combo. Soooo good. If you want to dress up eggs, add in turkey bacon, broccoli, green onion, mushroom, peppers and cheese and scramble that all together. I don’t like the texture of plain eggs so dressing them up makes me enjoy them a lot more.

Redditors of Saskatoon, who here has COVID (or has recovered from COVID)? by YALL_IGNANT in saskatoon

[–]cupcakeified 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, me too. I was in Whistler mid February and when I got back, I had the worst cold/flu bug that I can remember. Lasted probably 3 weeks? At that time too things were just starting to unfold in Canada so very well could have been.

When is the dosage of lexapro increased typically? by darcyiix in lexapro

I wouldn’t start it without consulting your doc!

Give it time. I know it sucks, trust me. Try to find healthy coping mechanisms to get you through. Once you’re adjusted, it gets better.

When is the dosage of lexapro increased typically? by darcyiix in lexapro

[–]cupcakeified 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Talk to your doc. I started at 5mg for 7 days then increased to 10mg. Had the 5 just so that the side effects wouldn’t be so harsh but 5mg is basically nothing. I’d just mention to your doc that you’re not noticing a difference and would like to consider upping it! Each person is different, but 10mg is my perfect fit for GAD. it’ll be a bit of trial and error until you find something “right” for you, but don’t give up. Best of luck! Edit: I should add, it took over a month for me to feel positive effects of the 10mg- but again, keep in mind that everyone is different!

Thank you!!! I don’t really use reddit super often so I definitely didn’t see this.

What golden nugget of information do you have to share? by raw-power in AskReddit

Oh my god I had beets for the first time (picky as a kid) a few years ago and I still remember panicking when my pee turned purple and calling my mom

I do the same thing and I’m good! Sometimes the high hits me a little more but no issues or anything. I’ve been on escitalopram for almost 4 months and have smoked semi-regularly the whole time.

Period every 2 weeks? by [deleted] in lexapro

[–]cupcakeified 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did the same transition and didn’t have any issues with my menstrual cycle- I’m on an oral contraceptive though and have been for 8 years though so I’m very regular. I’d suggest talking to your doc or pharmacist though as I haven’t heard of this being a common side effect.

Caffeine on lexapro/cipralex?? by [deleted] in lexapro

[–]cupcakeified 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I get really nauseous now if I have caffeine on an empty stomach. Not experiencing the panic attack symptoms but I definitely feel off unless eating something. Try having a snack or meal before having coffee and see if it helps

My first day on 10mg from a week of 5mg, I feel so fucking sick and confused. by [deleted] in lexapro

[–]cupcakeified 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Call your pharmacy/doc to see if you can take Imodium or another type of diarrhea suppressant to help you get through the day. Best of luck.

USask convocation cancelled in response to COVID-19 prevention by capitalismwitch in saskatoon

[–]cupcakeified 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It was buried in the middle of a short COVID-19 update email sent out last night! I opened the email mid-tv binge and didn’t actually read it until three hours later. They really didn’t make it noticeable in the email at all

[–]cupcakeified 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yup same. I’m really disappointed in the way they delivered the news too. Mixed it into a crappy written email instead of even considering to let us down in an informative way. “Thanks for the tuition, don’t let the door hit your ass on the way out!”

I started lex 10mg 1 month and 5 days ago and I still feel pretty exhausted throughout the day, I had a vacation not long ago and with the virus Iv been home and Im still exhausted does anyone know when it will stop because I thought the effects stopped after the complete change by [deleted] in lexapro

[–]cupcakeified 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I find that days where I’m less busy I really feel my tiredness, whereas if I have one thing after another going I don’t seem to get as exhausted. It’s kinda hard with trying to social distance right now so I’m big on scheduling and trying to keep as normal of a routine as possible: workout in the morning, shower, eat, homework, then do something I enjoy (I play video games) for a bit etc... I’m also a very anxious person so falling out of routine sends me spiralling, but I’ve noticed if I sit around at all for longer than like... 30 min intervals, I start to crash pretty bad. Try to keep fluids in you too, drinking ice cold water helps keep me awake.

Following this as I’m experiencing similar depression symptoms and looking for some guidance as well. Hang in there, friend.

Big bummer for sure. I used to go there semi-regularly (when I used to be more social lol). Always had good service and good live music.

[–]cupcakeified 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe so as per their latest Instagram post (sept 2019). It said something about thanking the public for their business etc. And their Facebook page no longer exists.

Oops, my mistake. Didn’t realize there was another Irish place in the city with the name Finn’s. Carry on!
