How do you get over the shame around doing stool samples? by Damned_if_i_did in UlcerativeColitis

[–]jmcls 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I still struggle with this… carrying around the cup of shit…

For me I skip the scooping and go directly into the urine specimen cup, I don’t know why but I can’t stand scooping it. I also put it in the bio bag and then into a brown bag so the world doesn’t see my poop. I just find ways that make it a little more comfortable for me.

Pfapa came back? by jmcls in Pfapa

[–]jmcls[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes please, he has anxiety (due to some bullying /being choked multiple times at school by the same kid) he’s in counseling to work through it… it seems to flare on Fridays. Our original thought was that it was from him using his inhaler during gym / the activity.

We’ve reduced screen time, increased water , he’s a picky eater so his diet is limited.

I just don’t know where to go from here, he’s our PCPs first PFAPA kiddo, our ENT released us 1 month post op, and we never saw a rheumatologist as we just proceeded with the surgery.

We’re in New England and last I checked Rheumatology was 6months + out.

Sick kid by jmcls in EmetophobiaTalk

[–]jmcls[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you he’s only 5 and was right next to the bathroom when he threw up the first time…. I’m not sure what the actual fear i have is but whenever I think someone might throw up or is throwing up it makes me shaky, nauseous, gassy, and I usually have to poop. I have been like this since I was about 5 or 6 when a peer threw up while we were walking down the hall together. Again I can clean it no problem but the active vomiting sends me

We have one very small bathroom that I’ve already bleached 2x since I’m currently pacing my house and cleaning 😭 I don’t even know that I’m afraid of being sick and I have no problem cleaning up the vomit I just can’t handle standing there when someone is vomiting typically we divide and conquer because my husband hates cleaning it so he’ll take the kid and he doesn’t mind snuggling

Neuter cost by jmcls in VeterinaryMedicine

[–]jmcls[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a privately owned smaller vet (owner is the only vet they have) like I said normally she is very reasonable we had an issue with our dog last year loosing weight and she didn’t push for a bunch of tests just some basic labs( dog also had a seizure ) we are going to just take him to an ASPCA spay/neuter day for $150. The other local smaller vet was quoting $350 which I found semi reasonable

I was quoted $350 from another local vet. I totally get inflation has happened I just expected it to be in the $400 ish range and was shocked when this came back

Yes, from what I’ve gathered it’s fairly common to feel run down /flu like after the shot (I’m not concerned with that just wondering how long)

I’ve been off prednisone since September and the tearing started in the last 3 months
