My head feels clearer today, thank God, migraine gone, I hope for good!

Rain again here, but some sun for about 5min at a time. Daphne was in pain when I got up today, and I was pretty sure by last night that I figured out what was going on with the bupe, (with help from LL!). So I gave her half the 0.15mg dose which is, I think 0.075. She looks very drugged and is not doing anything but laying on her bed, but won't go to sleep. I don't know if she has any pain relief yet…dose may be too small to relieve her pain (arthritis).

I like to do things one at a time, because I think it is important to know the reactions of whatever we do to our kitties (I do the same with my health issues, even adding new vitamins, diets…) So next I would like to add Adequan to improve her arthritis, but I know it takes a while to work, so thats why I wanted temporary relief first with the bupe., and also will get new blood work, and if possible an x-ray if they don't have to put her to sleep. (I had a vet that would stand in the room with the kitties and hold them still, :shock: can't imagine doing that. I wonder if he is still alive).

Sending healing vines to all the kitties and beans who need them. Also sending white light to all the kitties who went to the rainbow bridge in the last few days.

Hi Barb, Zener has gotten x-rays without being knocked out, at two different vets. So I don't think it is unusual. Amy of Amy&TrixieCat gives Adequan to their civie Mario and they are quite happy with the results. I'm sure she would be happy to share what she knows about it, like where to buy it. :smile: I hope you can find something to help Daphne. She has great numbers, just like always. :-D :-D

ETA: See Simon's condo today for a great discussion of Adequan.

Thanks Liz, Amy actually lives in my town and we talked about how great the Adequan is and how much it helped her other cat. I just wanted a fast relief for Daphne when it rains, and then I am going to get the Adequan for her. It supposed to take a while to start to work, so thats why I did the bupe first.

So, the bupe knocked her out for a bit today, and it's been about 6 hours since she had the .075, half the dose the vet said to give. I don't know if the 57 is from the bupe or what. I know pain makes the numbers go up, so if she had less pain, maybe thats what the lower numbers are from…not too off from what she has been. I will check her again at + 4 to make sure she's not going down farther then that.

Beautiful numbers from Daphne. I've heard many good reports about the Adequan, hope it does a great job on her too.

Nice greens for Daphne. I hope you get started on the Adequan. We use it on our dog and have seen wonderful results. Have a great night!

Hi Barb, looking good with Daphne's numbers. I hope she soon finds some relief and less pain. Sending some healing vines. I'm glad you are feeling better.

I'm glad your migraine is gone! It's good you only gave Daphne half the dose the vet recommended, since it knocked her out.

Her numbers are lovely as always...hopefully she'll level things off so you guys can relax tonight. The weather's looking a bit iffy for the next few days...hopefully we'll see more sun than anything, though!

Hi Barb,
I think it's a good idea to start the Adequan. So many people here have had good results with it. Daphne's arthritis pain doesn't seem to affect her bg numbers. I hope she'll be feeling better by tomorrow.
Glad to hear that your migraine is gone. Mine has left, too!!

Have a good evening,

Ella & Rusty

Great numbers today, despite poor Daphne's arthritis and boy do I know how she feels!!
Hear great things about Adequan, talk to your vet & see when to start--Hugs & Love to you--
Hope your migraine goes away--mine are ocular, but still a pain!! Feel good!
 
Thanks everybody for your advice on the Adequan. I hope it will help Daphne like it helps all the other kitties, dogs, and, horses. Wow, too bad people can't take it, a lot of us would love that!

I'm also sorry to read there are more of us with pain. I read so much about pain, for 30 years, and I have not found the perfect pill yet...no real relief. Someday, I hope there will be more for all of us in pain (including our kitties), whether it's a migraine, arthritis, Fibromyalgia,… it's frustrating.

Try to have a good night everyone, with less pain for kitties and beans!
 
i am sure nice green figures of Daphne helps to ease your migraine too! Take care & remember to do a bit of stretching!
