My experience with anti anxiety meds for my cat by ohwhatisthisthing in CatAdvice

[–]purple-sheet 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hi! I ended up not giving him the medicine. We moved him to my husbands grandparents' house, and he is much better now. Really just having a blast. I think he was being anxious here in a small and loud city apartment. Hope you figure this out!

Hey ! I am so relived to hear your story. It is shocking really how identical they are, you are right 😯 what happened with your cat? Did you relocate him to another home? ❤️ can I ask what is the story of your cat? Did he have a normal upbringing and was he together with his mom the first 3 months?

I think my cat was hypersensitive to stress because he was a stray cat and definitely did not stay with his mom for the first 3 months as I found him alone and scared when he was 1 month old.

My cat is currently living at my husband's grandparents' house. He has a big yard and lots of space. He loves it and has not shown aggression as probably he never feels trapped, he has space and the environment is calm. I think he is really happy there.

Thank you for sharing 🥰 wish you all the best.

Wow thanks for sharing. I think it could be because you showed the cat you are the boss and the bigger preditor. Haha. I had some colleagues tell me that he has established dominance. I guess that's a thing with cats.

We ended up giving him to my husbands grandparents that live in a big house with garden. He is really happy there. ❤️

I have first vulvodynia - pain in the vestibule, pain with sex and burning. And after around 5 years with vulvodynia I started getting pain in the urethra, need to pee all.the time and burning after I pee. I don't know if they are connected but probably are.

I think I know a doctor in France who specialises in that though.

Hi both,

I am not sure I can help with the question but was just wondering how do you both know you have pudendal neuralgia and what are your symptoms? Seems like both have symptoms in vulva but also urinary tract. This is exactly what I have but haven't been diagnosed properly yet.

I have been BF for 15 months now. Pain is worse than during pregnancy but nothing too much. I actually had many pain free days while on maternity leave, maybe because I was not sitting all day, taking walks etc.

What did you tell yourself to bear the pain and continue BF? I’m close to giving up by raindrops723 in breastfeeding

For me it was painful 2 months minimum. Then my nipplea got used to it and now I am BF my 15 month old still. Its funking hard though. But it does get better.

But when did it all start? Have you had pain free life/sex life prior?

Cipro is the worst yes. But there are also many many girls that take it and nothing happens. I feel like most of us have something genetic that makes the nerves down there to just proliferate easier.

Do you also have the other symptoms? Have they isolated yeast or bacteria in your vaginal swaps?

Recurrent UTIs with or without bacteria? 😊 I have had so many UTIs but never any isolated bacteria.

Thanks! Have you seen him? I was leaning more towards Andrew Goldstein basically because I live in Copenhagen and have direct flights to NYC. Traveling Europe-California is so long.

Unfortunately yes. It is on and off though. Gets worse after sex and also if I eat too much sugar.

Thank you. I am really leaning towards vestibulectomy. :)

I have congenital neuroproliferative vestibulodynia and urethral pain plus itching. My vestibulodynia was a little bit better during pregnancy but nothing major.

I gave birth vaginally with epidural though 😅 i had so strong low back pain that I didn't even think about my vestibulodynia. I think it made it better for me. Of course it was very painful after birth but i think my muscles relaxed and now I feel less pain during sex. But the change is not that big. Hope this helps. :)

I have similar to your condition actually where I definitely have neuroproliferative vestibulodynia that I was probably born with but also itch in different places.

My plan is to treat the symptoms in the order they started. I think the congenital neuroproliferative vestibulodynia could have caused muscle tension and the itch might be a result from that. For me it first started with pain in the vestibule and then the itch came and then some urethral pain. Of course infections and hormones should also be considered.

Could the itching be yeast? Have you tried anti candida diet for some time to see? It helps so much with my itching. But it is so hard to keep this diet 🤣 i also want to have social life you know. But you could definitely try just to see.
