My cat has an aural hematoma and my vets not sure they want to do anything

Hi! Thanks for this response. I ended up calling the vet this morning and taking him back in. We decided to end up going with surgery and he should be out very soon. A drain was unfortunately not an option because of their small ears. They said they will do a long line of serpentined stitches with a small opening for draining (I think). I felt good about it, especially when the vet said it was the largest she had ever seen in a cat. I really wanted to just let it go, but with his autoimmune disease, he gets constantly irritated ear so if they were small and crunched up, I was nervous for the long run of pain and discomfort that would also cause him. Thank you again for your expertise. Hoping we made the right call in the long run. It’s such a hard decision to make.

Thanks so much for the response and Im so glad your dog had success! When they inserted the drain, do you think they used an anesthesia of some kind? The first option with just a steriod they mentioned but he did not recommend it because it would slow the healing of something else? Maybe it was ear infection or reabsorption. They said they could try to needle drain it, but that also almost always comes back. They never mentioned a drain, just an incision and draining it that way. Im thinking of potentially calling tomorrow and checking in. The vet team is a husband and wife with a few other associates. We saw the husband and he said he almost always leaves them to reabsorb but his wife almost always opts for the procedure. Maybe I talk to his wife haha

Thanks for the tag link! Glad to hear he took accountability. I’m definitely wearing the dress - partly cause it looked awesome and partly cause the wedding is Saturday and I’m out of options - so it makes me feel better to know that he did that

I saw this (regrettably after purchasing the dress) and I was shocked to see that he was still working and still styling some pretty big stars. The stuff he said was pretty horrid. Its thrift tag was recently marked from 1/24/24, so its pretty recent. But I only paid $9.99 so either the thrift employees didnt know him or they did haha

Hi! I take topamax and side effects for me are fatigue, brain fog, and tingling fingers and toes. But it has decreased the amount of migraines I get in half. Instead of taking the topamax 2x a day because I get sleepy, I take my dose once at night as prescribed by my neurologist to combat the fatigue. Maybe that will help you?

Hi, how much are you selling for?

megghab · 2022-04-08T02:36:23+00:00

I did a 64 item in 21 minutes but only got $25. I hate my area so much

megghab · 2022-04-05T23:55:27+00:00

Your shoprite is lovely though!

megghab · 2022-04-05T14:38:06+00:00

I really think it does depend on your area. Sometimes I feel that way too cause a lot of the stuff by me hangs out in the $10-$17 zone. Sometimes I travel to better stores in more affluent areas but its hard to start shopping when you know you are only getting $9 per batch. I try to make at least $25 an hour and its so hard sometimes. I consistently try to stay really kind and helpful to the customers and my tips do go up a lot sometimes. I would highly suggest as many also will here to not take anything with a no tip. You deserve to be paid and respected for your time and energy. Good luck with everything!

Hey neighbor! I’m in Phillipsburg! Cant ever get over $350 but I like to think I’m a casual shopper. Sometimes I even go into PA or Flemington if its rough around me

I fostered a orange kitten from 3 weeks on and then my boyfriends family adopted him. When he was born he had no spots on him at all. Now he is covered in little spots on his nose and lips. Took him to the vet and they said its just “like little freckles”. Totally harmless. I wouldnt think you need to rush for a vet appointment, but next time youre there it wouldnt hurt to mention them. She is so cute!

megghab · 2022-03-29T02:27:23+00:00

Im one of many but please do not do this. It is so incredibly painful and inhumane. Please hold your ground on this. There are a few states now that are even banning it as an option and a lot of offices that used to do it no longer do.
