AMPS 89 - 3 drops in syringe :shock:

Shadow seems fine although I slept in the real bed last night, hoping she would too but she just went back to laying on the bath mat again.
:sad: I know she can jump when she wants to so I just have to figure out how to get her to want to be beside me in our real bed again.
I did have a moment of anxiety at 3 am when I realized I had been asleep so soundly for 3 1/2 hours and wasn't aware of where she was
and jumped up and hunted for her. ( bath mat ) Today daughter should get released sometime. I need to work 4 hours too , skipped
yesterday obviously. And I have a vet appointment for Shadow and eskie dog, Luna today but I guess I'll cancel that. Just well checks.


Yesterday's events on daughter:
Thank you everyone for all the hugs and prayers and vines and worrying over us. I very very much appreciate it.

She is doing better. They added 3 separate bags of iv's yesterday so she's rehydrated. She stopped throwing
up and they gave her antinausea to counter any more of it. They would not let her eat or drink anything until 7pm last night
giving her some sprite and she kept it down, and then broth and jello. The tylenol they've given wasn' stopping the fever
so they gave her motrin. I haven'theard yet if it worked.

They do not feel it is related to the ulcer issue. Just a bad coincidence to have another digestion type problem, probably the "suspect
ulcer" made her more vulnerable to bacteria.
They think it might be salmonella or e.coli but there are 4 other possibilities too.
She does eat spinach often and that has a higher probability of carrying things like that. She did eat at subway on sunday afternoon
and had spinach on her sandwich.

I got home within 5 minutes of shadow' shot time last night and had to feed all the other critters too.
They kept her overnight and will re-run all the labs tomorrow before releasing her, if everything continues progressing forward.
My DH stayed with her last night. He'd rather do that than cat duty. He hasn't tested Shadow yet or given her a shot although he
has given me shots in the past. Shadow can be a lot more aggressive towards everyone else.

The reason for the suspect ulcer is she had her wisdom teeth out end of May. She got thru the first night and then started throwing up
the second day.... possible reaction to the oxycodone ( too high a dose) and /or the antibiotics. She's always been stomach sensitive.
She threw up so much that she got dehydrated and wouldn't eat any of the few things that you can have after teeth removal.
We had to take her to the ER then too to get iv rehydration and antinausea. And she had a slow recovery, dry sockets and has been
on again, off again been dealing with stomach issues ever since.
My theory is a trauma ulcer from all that initial throwing up after the oxycodone but for some reason, she isn't healing completely.
They have had her on prilosec for over a month so that's why we have been waiting to see a gi specialist for pediatrics.
In New Mexico, regular gastroenterologists won't see anyone under the age of 18 ( i don't know why ?) . There are only 3 pediatric
gi drs in New Mexico.
She is scheduled for a endoscopy on Nov 2.
 
Re: 10/3 Shadow AMPS 89 +2~70

Hi Rhiannon, glad Shadow is doing okay. Maybe he feels the stress and thus the bath mat. So sorry to hear all your daughter is going thru. Glad she got rehydrated. I sure wish she didn't have to wait so long for the endoscopy. Sending healing vines and prayers for your DD today.
 
Re: 10/3 Shadow AMPS 89 +2~70

(((DD and Rhiannon)))

Many more healing vines for your daughter, Rhiannon! This must be so rough on all of you. You're in our thoughts!

Beautiful numbers for Shadow - it's great of her to give you those, one less thing to worry about!

Hugs
Jane
 
Re: 10/3 Shadow AMPS 89 +2~70

Hi guys .. beautiful numbers again for shadow! So glad to hear your DD is feeling better .. fingers crossed she can come home today without any more problems .. I sure hope Nov 2nd comes quick for you ... odd that you can't be seen unless you are over 18 for these issues .. anyways, hope you guys have a much better day today then yesterday!
 
Re: 10/3 Shadow AMPS 89 +2~70

I'm glad your daughter is doing better. I hope they can get the fever gone soon and the nausea under control. Nice numbers for Shadow today. I hope she keeps surfing for you so you don't have to worry about her.
 
Re: 10/3 Shadow AMPS 89 +2~70 +3~71 * +5~91 *

gave shadow food and went to hospital.
DD was nibbling on dry toast and had one bite of banana and sipping ginger ale.

Her regular pediatrician came in before I got there and said they found No bacteria. He just thinks it's the crud all the kids in the schools are sharing right now. ( small town)
But because she already had issues, it hit her extremely hard.
They will keep her all day and may let her come home tonite if she keeps all foods down.
The fever broke just before I got there too.

I took her favorite naturally decaffeinated green tea and some sugar ( they actually gave her a regular lipton tea bag and grape juice and orange juice - and she shouldn't have anything acidic!! Typical! )

just gave shadow some more food so she should surf in the 70's after the food influence drops off. gotta go work.
Funny how some foods raise her bg by 20 or so and some of them don't.
I'll have to start denoting which one's .... I think either the fancy feast does it or it may be all turkey varieties.
Even though we have no other issue, the one thing I wasn't happy about with fancy feast is the higher phosphorus values. Don't want that to become an issue some day......
 
Re: 10/3 Shadow AMPS 89 +2~70 +3~71 * +5~91 * New Update

Still thinking of you and sending healing vines for DD! Paws crossed that she keeps everything down and is able to come home. It is miserable at the hospital. ((((Rhiannon))))
 
Re: 10/3 Shadow AMPS 89 +2~70 +3~71 * +5~91 * New Update

How great that Shadow is nice and stable for you right now, goooooooooood kitty!! cat_pet_icon so glad dd is coming around and it's nothing serious :razz: yeay! hoping the rest of your day just gets better and better.
 
Re: 10/3 Shadow AMPS 89 +2~70 +3~71 * +5~91 * New Update

Healing vibes going out to your daughter, Rhiannon. Hope she can come home tonight. We all feel better at home.
And Shadow is giving you such pretty numbers! I bet she does feel the stress you are experiencing with the whole bath mat thing. It is noticeable that my guys do that if I am worked up about something.
All the best to you and the whole family! :YMHUG:
 
Re: 10/3 Shadow AMPS 89 +2~70 +3~71 * +5~91 * New Update

Hi Rhiannon, Glad to hear your daughter is rehydrated, hope the fever and nausea subside and she feels better soon. Sorry she has to wait so long for the endo, sending healing vines.
Nice numbers for Shadow, continuing her reign as the green surfing machine :mrgreen: Have a good rest of the day!

Re: 10/3 Shadow AMPS 89 +2~70 +3~71 * +5~91 * New Update

Best wishes for your DD. That must be an awful experience. I freak out when I throw up just once or twice! Shadow seems to be doing just fabulous! Buster says thank you for inviting him to surf with her today - it seems to have worked!

Hang in there!
 
Re: 10/3 Shadow AMPS 89 +2~70 +8.5~85 releasing dd soon

dd held down lunch so they are going to release her early. Dr just wants to see here and he'll sign her out. ( might be another 2 hrs for him to come down from the clinic - same building :roll: )
so I'm going to go trade off with DH.
poor man is stir crazy and wants to go ride his bike.
I told him sure, but don't expect me to sit up there for 2 plus hours and come home and create some great dinner. So i think he'd rather I go to the store and find something great to make for dinner. darn. :lol:

she just wants soup and crackers.


I really think Shadow is avoiding the bed because of the dog. ( one sleeps on the bed , one sleeps on other side of DH on big dog bed.)
I'll try an experiment to see if I can change Shadow's mind. I figure cold weather will change her mind but I'm tired of waiting.
 
Re: 10/3 Shadow AMPS 89 +2~70 +8.5~85 releasing dd soon

I hope Shadow will start coming to you in bed. I love kitties in bed!

Tell DH to go pick up some good takeout!

Glad to hear all is going well and that DD should be springing the coop sometime soon.
 
Re: 10/3 Shadow AMPS 89 +2~70 +8.5~85 releasing dd soon

(((Rhiannon))) Wow, what an ordeal for DD, you, DH, Shadow, the other critters. I had a terrible case of food poisoning this summer but it wasn't as bad as this. Sending tons of healing vines for continued progress for DD. Nice green surf for Shadow today. :mrgreen: :mrgreen:
Liz
 
Re: 10/3 Shadow AMPS 89 +2~70 +8.5~85 releasing dd soon

Yeah! I'm glad DD is coming home soon. There is no place like home and she'll feel so much better there, and so will you and DH. :YMHUG:

Shadow seems to be doing well with the decrease, as usual a nice surf. I just got two kitties on the bed, but putting some of my fleece tops on the bed. They are like cat magnets.
 
Re: 10/3 Shadow AMPS 89 +2~70 +8.5~85 releasing dd soon

Great news that dd is coming home! Hopefully the doc will find the express elevator and get there sooner :roll:

I hear you about wanting Shadow in the bed... Reuben`s been on the credenza for so long now... I ask him if he`s ever going to be velcro kitty again!! I hope your plan works :razz:

Still very happy for you and Shadow for the dosecrease,

Can`t wait to hear what DH prepares for supper!!! :lol:
 
Re: 10/3 Shadow AMPS 89 +2~70 +8.5~85 releasing dd soon

Rhiannon, today's report on DD is so much better than yesterday. I'm keeping her in my prayers, 'til she gets a whole lot better. :-D
Beautiful day for Shadow. I sure hope she comes to bed with you soon. :-D
 
Re: 10/3 Shadow AMPS 89 +2~70 +8.5~85 releasing dd soon

Good news that your DD will be home tonight, Rhiannon. I hope that every hour she will be feeling better and better.

Shadow's numbers continue to be so good. You are doing a great job with her. Don't worry, she'll sleep on the bed again in her own time.

So is your DH going to be in charge of dinner? ?

Have a good, restful evening. Lots of healing vines going out tonight for your DD.

Ella & Rusty
 
Re: 10/3 Shadow AMPS 89 +2~70 +8.5~85 releasing dd soon

Good news about DD! Glad she'll be coming home. Nothing like that to make a person feel better!!!

Hope you get some rest!
 
Re: 10/3 Shadow PMPS 143 No !! Boo !! and Yay! DD is home

chicken noodle soup and crackers for dd

Re: 10/3 Shadow PMPS 143 No !! Boo !! and Yay! DD is home

Rhiannon, Glad your DD is home! :-D Hope surfmaster Shadow will be back in the swing before you know it.
 
Re: 10/3 Shadow PMPS 143 +2~68

hmmm.
wonder if shadow going to that 143 was her version of a bounce and she dropped today after her +8.5.....?

that's quite a drop for her at the +2.
shows how odd the 143 is for her....
 
Re: 10/3 Shadow PMPS 143 +2~68

Well done Shadow! You've got to teach Rosy how to get her bg to behave! Your high is already Rosy's low! :lol:
