We took Tundra in to see the vet this last week, and we had collected some information from the rescue group I'm on as for what options he had. One was an injection that could be given monthly to ease arthritis pain. And when we arrived the vet was excited to tell us a bout … Continue reading Puppy Vet Appointment

Stiff Old Guy – Our Puppy Is 13 – Advice?
So, Tundra is 13, and he's starting to get weak around the back legs. We had already reached out to the vet and had an appointment to address pain. Next week we have his yearly physical and all that entails and we'll be talking to them about his hind end weakening. I'm looking at Walkin' … Continue reading Stiff Old Guy – Our Puppy Is 13 – Advice?
I’m Mentioned in this Article!
They found me on reddit on a thread about medications and Mark Cuban's pharmacy - my main psych medication used to be $15,000 out of pocket for a three month supply. The same medication, as a generic, at Mark Cuban's is $39 for a three month supply. Here's the article in question: https://www.marketwatch.com/story/the-doctor-lowering-drug-prices-for-1-million-patients-with-help-from-mark-cuban-sam-altman-and-martin-shkreli-5e72d77a And for … Continue reading I’m Mentioned in this Article!
Surgery Day!
Today is the day I go and have the probably-not-cancer tumor removed, so there's no post. Wish me luck!
Surgery Consult
Had my surgery consult on Friday, along with a CT scan. Turns out the hospital that did the MRI didn't send them the actual MRI, just the reading. So I have to call and ask them to mail that as a disc or something to me. But it looks like loss of sensation, no loss … Continue reading Surgery Consult
Reschedule: Off to Have My Head Examined LATER
Turns out they scheduled me for the wrong MRI. ... I didn't know that was a thing, but it means that I have a NEW MRI appointment on January 3rd. They called me frantically at 7:15 in the morning to reschedule, so I can't fault the poor lady for hopping to get it fixed. I … Continue reading Reschedule: Off to Have My Head Examined LATER
Off To Have My Head Examined
I have to travel for an MRI today, so there's not much post to be had. See you on Monday~! *smile*
Covid Vaccine Booster Oops
I mentioned, briefly, that I had a reaction to the Covid Booster, and I guess I should elaborate on that. TL;DR: Get the MATCHING booster for the shots you already had! My first two vaccines for Covid were Pfizer. The first, almost nothing but a sore arm, and the second I had a day of … Continue reading Covid Vaccine Booster Oops
2nd Covid Shot Done!
I had my second Covid shot last Thursday! It was the pfizer one. The guy who did the shot... was not a nurse. He moved the needle while it was in my arm, and I have a quarter sized bruise there. Sore arm the first day. The second day, I spiked a fever of ~100, … Continue reading 2nd Covid Shot Done!
Our DOG Has a Herniated Disc
We (and by 'we' I mean my parents) have a new malamute named Mary. She came from a puppy mill breeder as breeding dog and has already had tumors on her mammary glands. So those were removed, she lost her girly bits so no more puppies, and she moved in with us. She's scared of … Continue reading Our DOG Has a Herniated Disc
