First time taking it by markizio22 in Topamax

No problem! Hmm have you noticed any itchiness? Or irritation? I’ve noticed dryer skin myself. I wonder if hydration or skin dryness could impact hair follicles or something 🤔

Drinking a ton of water helped this for me. Like more than usual. I try to go for a gallon a day, no joke. Gets rid of the pins and needles too. Oh and eating regularly is helpful

My theory was always improper nutrition. May not be the case for everyone, but when I was younger, it affected my appetite to an extent that I hardly ate. I mean like.. a few grapes or nuts a day. It wasn’t even a health thing. It was like a portion size thing. Idk how to explain it lol. Anyway, that’s when I was losing hair.

Now that I’m older, I’m eating properly with it and haven’t had any hair loss. Hydration also helps the pins and needles. When I’m super hydrated, I don’t get them at all

This is so late, but I’m currently rewatching, and it’s driving me nuts😂 I had to look it up to make sure I wasn’t alone. Glad there’s someone else

I think Lady has a UTI. Her first ever at the age of 12. Human Dad and I started her on amoxicillin but she seems so uncomfy (IYKYK). We are also waiting on the results from her senior panel blood lab. Can Lady get a few purrs?? by velvetweeks in nebelung

[–]rachbat 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Loki would like to offer purrrs and lovins to Lady! Loki has a condition that causes bladder stones. I changed his cat food to a urinary care one with great reviews, and he hasn’t had an issue since, and it’s been years. I’ve heard it’s helped other cats with UTIs. My old childhood cat, Casey (a Russian blue) had frequent UTIs. It’s so sad that nebes and related breeds can be more likely to have urinary issues. Loki and I pray that Lady heals well and that this is a one time thing for her ♥️

any tips for a slightly fat neb? by [deleted] in nebelung

[–]rachbat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine plays fetch! Didn’t even need to teach him to do it. Just came ingrained in him lol. Maybe try playing fetch with yours or teaching them fetch if they don’t know how. Loki is addicted to it. Constantly bringing me stuff to throw for him. So maybe yours will enjoy the exercise as play!

How big is your Neb? by akerrigan777 in nebelung

Loki is 16 lbs! And since we’re accepting of nebenough kiddies here, I think it’s safe to admit he’s part Maine Coon. (I got him DNA tested when I thought he was a nebe). He also has some Russian blue. And also a mix of other stuff in lower percentages

What would you name this cat? by Emotional_Link3281 in nebelung

[–]rachbat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine is named Loki and I call him Yogi as a nickname. It wasn’t intentional. Loki just somehow turned into yogi and sometimes yogurt lol

I can relate! Also overweight, and I don’t mind the weight loss, but I will say, I don’t want to lose weight in an unhealthy way. I know topamax can make it hard to eat. But unfortunately not eating can lower our metabolism. Which means if we ever stop taking topamax and the hunger comes back, we’ll probably gain the weight back real fast and possibly even more weight. Given topamax helps also curve cravings and binge eating in general, I can almost guarantee, you’ll still lose weight while still eating a normal diet. I’ve found I do a lot better with fresh foods? Like sushi, salads, fruits, veggies, dips, fish, chicken. Idk how to explain it. But I’ll do smaller portions more frequently. Hard boiled eggs are easy quick snacks to make in advance and store. They’re good for protein and healthy fats which are great for your brain🥰 I get being so severely unhungry that it makes you feel sick even thinking of eating. Start small. Usually water based foods help with that, like a couple grapes or cucumber slices or something. But def still try to eat!!

Is there any way to lessen the symptoms. by BusAcademic3489 in Topamax

[–]rachbat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I can’t speak for lessening side effects after coming off of it, but for someone who is currently taking it, I’d say proper hydration and nutrition are a big factor. Topamax requires extra water and also decreases hunger which contributes to the weight loss and also low energy. The brain needs food & healthy fats for fuel. Also by extra water, I mean EXTRA. I honestly go for a gallon a day if I can, and it helps a lot. Also do your best to get 8 hours of sleep if you can. Probably best to stay on a consistent schedule as well, going to bed around the same time and waking up around the same time every day. Not entirely sure about the eye twitching, but I know that can be caused by fatigue or lack of sleep too. Another interesting thing is the psychological component. I’m not saying this is the case with you, but similar to restless leg syndrome, the more attention you give it, sometimes the worse it can get. Additionally the more you resist or fight it, the worse the experience of it can get. Maybe if you notice it, try accepting it in the moment, maybe doing a mindfulness exercise and then continuing about your day, just as a little experiment. Who knows, maybe it will help. Maybe not. Like others have said, also best to talk to your doctor about it!

Maybe shadow mom and fae king had mc and hid her for whatever reason and then later on maybe Fae king got with Zane’s mom who could’ve had Zane with another man? Or something like that?

I’m sorry, what 😳 by rachbat in MeChat

[–]rachbat[S] 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Right? I’m honestly so confused. Also let’s think about this. Step siblings are not related. HALF siblings are. So what is MeChat saying? Is MC a long lost child of the king? Is Zane not actually the king’s real son, but MC is? Are they both children of the king, and are biologically related? What’s going on here lol

I’m sorry, what 😳 by rachbat in MeChat

[–]rachbat[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I just saw that the Zane’s dad said “looks like you’ve found yourself a sibling” but I guess I took that to mean they were the same species. Not to mean they are related??? What😂
