One of my cats passed away quite suddenly yesterday. I’d noticed she wasn’t feeling good Tuesday when I got back from work and she didn’t greet me. 24 hours later I was taking her to the emergency vet and less than 48 hours later she was gone

I think loss can be really hard sometimes. I want it to be my fault, because then if it ever happened again I would be able to control the outcome better - but I can’t just fix sudden onset congestive heart failure. The vets sure couldn’t - she didn’t respond to the aggressive medication that was meant to help her blood pressure go back to normal

I don’t really have a point to this post. But Mia was the best cat of all time - she was eleven years old, and the most affectionate and persistent cat in existence. She would physically grab your hands to let you know that whatever you were doing with them weren’t as important as her (including knocking phones directly out of your hands). She demanded pets from everyone who walked through the door like a tiny bridge troll or a mafia boss - especially for people who were allergic to her

She liked to shred paper with her teeth - not to eat, just to prove that she could because her previous owners front paw declawed her and she was still determined to shred things and cause a mess on principle. She had a bb pellet in her thigh - also from before I owned her - that spawned the joke that we misread the adoption paperwork and Mia was actually MIA from whatever war she was involved in.

She would wake me up by placing her foot on my face and slowly increasing the amount of weight on said foot and if I didn’t wake up, she very purposefully walked across my head. If that failed she would walk in a tight circle around my head to try and step on any hair that was on the pillow, since that was sure to make me wake up - honestly her most toxic trait. Sometimes she would just put a paw on my face and just drag it slowly down my cheek or stick her face right next to mine to try and tickle me with her whiskers. It should be noted: she had no reason to do this. She was fed via the machine, not dependent on me being awake. And for the most part she didn’t! But sometimes she would just go through phases of being absolutely inconsolable if I slept in at all

She didn’t sleep with me at night usually (because I roll like an alligator I move literally so much) but any other time I was vaguely horizontal she liked to be directly atop my person. She would sometimes be next to me, and would let me cuddle her like a teddy bear

She was a dense tank of a cat who took no shit and would have ignored the world ending as long as she was receiving pets, and I will miss her every day

Mia you looked like burned toast and had no sense of personal boundaries and you were the absolute best thing that’s ever happened to me

Wait what that wizard post has like... lore??? Omg I'm so excited that's lit

the post in question

yes!! well. kinda? all the people in the thread are members of the wizardposting community, where we roleplay as and make jokes about wizards with like silly spells and such. each person's playing a character that they've developed. there's even art in some cases! there're a lotta posts and blogs out there, it's well worth exploring around and searching blogs for #wizardposting, #wizard shit, #wizart, any tags like that

#i'm kinda inactive but i'm in the community #i play a character called sewi who is so pathetic #or at least that was the concept before she started learning some actually half decent spells #now it's like. she can TECHNICALLY kill you easily with life drain or instant dehydration but no fucking way she's gonna do that #instant dehydration is reserved solely for cleaning up spills and making dried fruit #life drain is for getting energy back when she's worn out. she mostly targets batteries with it. #ask #wizardposting #the one time she accidentally killed someone she did NOT deal well with it

Fever woke me up this morning but at least it's not making me hallucinate like last time I had COVID. Symptoms pretty similar--my joints and guts are Compromised, keep having mast cell reactions--but I'm not delirious and my fever isn't running at 103+ for days. I should be getting paxlovid today, the allergy nurse recommends it just because my immune system is suppressed and I already have lung and kidney damage lol

#Always forget about the kidneys but they actually put me at risk with #Anything that causes dehydration/high fevers/autoimmune response #I get kidney injuries stupid easily with bad infections

[volatilechemicalz]

I don't think I'm that tired actually I think I'm dehydrated . oops

#noodle talks #not art #the last time i drank anything was like 6ish hours ago n it was soda . uhm #we get dehydrated really easily 4 some reason n whenever we do we're absolutely exhausted #🔋 #i dont wanna get up 2 get water though ugh #oh also last time we drank water was like 8 hours ago

been on a new med and it's helping my pots symptoms. but also it's giving me headaches -- im not really a girlie who gets headaches unless it's caused by medication, and unfortunately taking otc pain medication for a headache gives me rebound headaches.

im trying to figure out (a) is it the medication itself & hence unavoidable for the unlucky who get the side effect? perhaps would a smaller dose be more fitting?

or (b) is it some sort of electrolyte imbalance?

the med works by basically swapping sodium for potassium in biological processes, which means my body will now hold onto salt better -> helps my pots symptoms. in order to work, i have to consume a lot of salt. but im already just past the limit of the amount of salt my dr is ok with me taking (~10g; im hovering around 2.6g per electrolyte packet i put in a liter of water x 4 liters of water a day = 10.4g).

do i need more salt? do i need more water, without electrolytes? do i need more potassium, since this med can cause potassium levels to drop?

yeah, this could all be solved by just getting a blood test but consider: my schedule is booked with upcoming appts and im still recovering from taking my son to the emergency vet 1.5 weeks ago. i dont wanna add even more to my plate.

#borbtalks #one of the upcoming appts is with a PA from the prescribing dr's office & i can ask then #but again. blood test. #also ok ik that's a wild amount of salt but my body literally will not hold onto water without it #to the point that if i dont supplement salt. and drink only plain water. it will make me dehydrated #bc my body just won't hold onto that water #im actually really hoping this med does work out bc it's doing wonders for my hr + bp #and the med i was on previously would only work in 4 hr increments & i could only take it while i was upright #so it was like. ok hr & bp during the day. and then low bp high hr at night #and so any rest gained from the day for my pacing battery would be easily cancelled out by the night

Hey y’all! Weird question time! Do you know of any mayonnaise available for purchase that doesn’t contain vinegar? My grandma wants to share a turkey salad sandwich recipe with me but it takes mayo and I haven’t been able to find any without vinegar, and I’m allergic to vinegar Alternatively, do you have any recipes? The ones I’m finding all have raw egg in them, and I am. Uh. Hesitant? about using raw egg in something that will not be cooked before it’s consumed 

#the person behind the yarn #food mention #allergy mention #I mean it's not the only condiment I haven't been able to buy a version of that I can eat #I also can't have ketchup mustard most barbecue sauces ranch dressing tartar sauce...pretty much any sauce? #some of them I can find recipes for without vinegar #but then sometimes there's another ingredient that's iffy #am I being overly cautious about the raw egg thing? maybe! #but I am on an immunosuppressant. I'm not on it to suppress my immune system like that's not the goal #but it's my 'please retain salt and raise blood pressure' medication #all the steroid medications are geared for corticosteroids not mineralocorticoids so I have NO IDEA how much of an immunosuppressant it is #I mean the medication side effect warnings #but I know I get dehydrated EXTREMELY easily and get very sick from dehydration very very fast #so even like mild food poisoning could be very very bad for me #please do not take me as a medical professional. I am not! I am merely sodium georg with a bunch of allergies #trying to figure out how to make my grandma's recipe because it would make her happy

So the lesson here is: if you’re feeling bad, depressed, or low energy, make sure you’ve been drinking enough water

#it’s annoying because none of my coworkers need to drink as much as me #idk why I’m dehydrated so easily
