Question #1:

Any suggestions so high anxiety cat can learn to trust a gentle dog?

One cat with dog is cool. Dog does not care, like the cats are a curiosity. The second cats gos on high alert , claws, and fast feet she runs from the room in terror juts looking at a the dog. Dog does not even bark. Problem is cat is upstairs.Food and liter are down.
I do not want food or liter upstairs because it makes a mess and allergy issues.
Any suggestions so the high anxiety cat can learn to trust a gentle dog? Both a new to dog and house. Cats travel with my daughter, if you know what I mean, She loves them.
I don't want cat poo or piss upstairs, I will freak out and it sets allergies off something awful.

Question #2:

Breathing problems: What do you think this could be?

Hiya,

l'm 17 and l've had this breathing problem for about 2 months now, and it only occurs at night time. When l lay down, my chest and throat feels like it's tightening, therefore l can't breathe and it's difficult for me to yawn unless l relax and l do, then when l yawn, and taken a deep breath, the tightness comes back again. Like l said, it only occurs at night time and sometimes in the day l struggle. l've tried lifting my pillows up higher but that doesn't do anything.

There's a history of Asthma and allergies in my family, so do you think this could be the problem?

Thanks x

Question #3:

Do I have the flu or what's wrong with me?

Four days ago got a migraine after dinner that lasted a few hours then I threw up, which was really bad. never been that bad before. After that I was just really weak and didn't go to sleep until 4am. Woke up with a fever and was still weak and dizzy. And have felt weak and dizzy since then. Like Sunday. There's some stuff in my throat and nose but I think that part is just allergies. Should I take a cold and flu pill?

Question #4:

Will A&D ointment help my cat's irritated skin?

My cat has a mild flea allergy.
I flea comb her daily and use the neck treatment from Advantage.

However, we still seem to get a couple stray fleas and she's losing her fur in patches, especially around her hind legs. She refuses to let me touch the area so I know it hurts/itches and is uncomfortable.
Will A&D ointment help her? Is there something else I should try?

I have to wait 2 weeks for my next paycheck till I can get her in at the vet, so I need something to help her until then.
Added: We've flea bombed the house a few times.
The problem is my sister's dog that no one will treat, she keeps restarting the cycle.

Question #5:

Is this normal.........?

So my eyes were all sore and hurt me so I went to the doctor and he prescribed two different kinds of eye drops for me as he discovered that I have allergies, but now right after I had used one of them I noticed a red dot in my eye, is this normal? Also should I stop using the eye drops?

Question #6:

Problem with my eyes?

Please help friends. I think my eyeballs are not in correct position and its not like that of others. Even some of my friends told me that i have some problem with my eyes. When I looked at the mirror I also felt that there's a slight problem with their position.

I have been suffering from allergy since many years. Will that be the cause? Also one of my eye is smaller than the other.

I have uploaded the photo of my eyes.
here's the link.

Question #7:

Can I get in trouble with the law if I spray ant/roach killer on my husbands underwear?

I did this and he has developed a terrible allergy and is now threatening to take this before a judge..Can I get in REAL trouble?

Question #8:

What breeds of dogs can a person with dog allergies own?

I myself don't have dog allergies, but my mother does.

Although dogs as far as I am aware aren't aggressive depending upon breed but upon how they are trained, I am looking for a dog that will generally be friendly around other animals, as I also own a micro pig and my sister is currently raising kittens.

Any info. would be greatly appreciated.
She has allergies against the dander I believe. She says 'the fur' so I assume the dander.

Question #9:

Itchy red lump on my thigh, what is it caused by?

I take benadryl and claritin for allergies,, but the swelling didn't go down. I went swimming in a lake yesterday and noticed it itch and hurt. I didn't notice any bite marks and rubbed some Cortizone on it to help with the itching. The lump is the size of my hand all under my thigh behind my knee. I want to know what it is caused by, and looking it up only showed spider bites or allergies. It isn't hives and it's not a spider bite. What could it be caused by and how do I help the swelling?

Question #10:

Question #11:

Bunches of small bugs in our house?

we originally thought that they were fruit flies, they are that small, you can really only see them in the right light. however i was just sitting in our dining room where the little buggers (no pun intended) were flying all around me and walked out of the room with 10 bites on my face! what could they be? i am not sure how big gnats are, but idk if that is a possibility. we have tried our hardest to eliminate anything that could be attracting them, we just cant seem to get rid of them, and I usually react bad to bites, i took allergy medicine as soon as i left the room, but if it is something that could make me sick i want to make sure that we get rid of them fast.

thanks

Question #12:

Moms who had PPD, what did you do to cope?

I was diagnosed with PPD a week and half ago at 4 weeks PP. I finally told my husband that there was something wrong with me when I was actually considering hurting myself because I felt like such a horrible mother. I had to give up breastfeeding because of my daughter's milk allergy at 2 weeks PP, which is what my doctor thinks "triggered" my PPD. I feel extremely guilty about that. He prescribed me zoloft but I have not started it yet. I feel like there are "other" ways to deal with it. My midwife called yesterday to check on me and she told me that my feelings are not going to just "go away", that I can hide them by keeping busy or returning work (4 weeks early, part time starting Monday) but at the end of the day I will still suffer from PPD. Some days are really good, but some days are really bad (like today). I just want to know what other moms have done to cope, or if taking a pill is the only way?
FYI - I did my research on the milk allergy, my newborn was projectile vomiting my breast milk since day 1. Her pediatrician and my OB diagnosed it. Thanks though.
Olivia's mom you have no idea what you are talking about and obviously have never suffered from PPD. Here is a link of just ONE website of HUNDREDS about milk allergies in breast milk so you can start your research before answering a question with incorrect facts Click Here
Olivia's mom - "EDIT #2 - LOL, I had PPD after my first baby in 2007 and severe PPD after my second in 2009. I was prescribed paxil the first time and zoloft the second time.
I'm not clear how breast milk allergies related to MY Post pardum depression issues....????" - ONCE AGAIN DO NOT ANSWER THE QUESTION IF YOU ARE NOT GOING TO PAY ATTENTION AND FOR A MOM WHO SUPPOSEDLY SUFFERED FROM PPD YOU REALLY KNOW HOW TO BE A BITCH. I NEVER SAID MILK ALLERGY TRIGGERED YOUR PPD, I WAS CORRECTING YOU BECAUSE YOU SAID THAT MILK ALLERGIES CANNOT HAPPEN IN BREASTFED BABIES. READ THE QUESTION!

Question #13:

I am I going to die?????????????

was feeling real depressed (I really don't feel like explaining) but i took 3 allergy pills instead of the prescribed 1. I also ate some hand sanitizer and I sprayed some perfume in my mouth. It's been almost 2 days and I realize it was a big mistake. My arms and legs feel weak but nothing else is wrong. Am I going to die?

Question #14:

Why won't my headache go away?

On Friday I began to have a headache. It started on the front of my head, above my right eyebrow. It migrated, over time, to the back of my head and now it is back to my forehead. The intensity of my headaches have ranged with the most intense being when the pain was near the front of my head.

Right now my head feels heavy and I am feeling a little warmer than usual.

I have been taking loratadine and flucticasone propionate for allergies since early July.

Question #15:

How do I get rid of my eczema?

It was allergy induced and from blowing my nose too much. I also have asthma and have read that that can cause flair ups. Are there any cheap lotions or creams, or home remedies with stuff already in the house that can clear eczema up completely? The dry flaky skin is gone, it's just red still. :( Thanks

Question #16:

Anybody else have anaphylactic reactions to allergy shots?

I am trying to decide if I should stop getting allergy shots. I have been taking them for several years, but have had reactions to them a bunch of times, including, hives, asthma attacks, facial swelling, sinus swelling, and crushing sinus headaches. One of the last injections I had, in addition to my face swelling, asthma going nuts, I apparently went very pale and got all woozy (Blood pressure getting wonky?), I don't remember a lot of that one, except epinephrine, inject-able Benadryl, and a discussion about paramedics... Later I was told they weren't so sure they weren't going to be able to bring me out of that one. I guess I scared the crap out of everybody!

The next week they backed me down to the very beginning dose...but later, (like, 45 minutes later) I got a sinus headache and my face swelled up AGAIN. No asthma attack though. Trying to decide if I should stop getting the shots or wait on the low dose and see if it stops...
Additional detail...my allergies are to dogs and HOUSEDUST! (yep...I have nearly been taken out by DUST! ROTFL) Kind of hard to avoid housedust...
Oh, and my doctor came to me and asked me if I was comfortable continuing shots, because he wasn't so sure it was a good idea...

Question #17:

Have you ever heard of this to decrease under eye puffiness?

I heard that you can try to crush up an antihistamine (such as Benadryl) and mix it with water and then apply to the under eyes to decrease puffiness and dark circles. I know that allergies definitely cause puffiness and I was just wondering because it'd be great to use benadryl w/o getting sleepy. Thanks!

Question #18:

How would I find out which antibiotics I am allergic to?

Months ago when I had bronchitis, I was put on several antibiotics: Prednisone, Hydrocodone, and another one I can't recall. The Hydrocodone made me sleep really heavily and the second time I took it, it made me slightly nauseous. The next morning, I woke up covered in hives on nearly every part of my body. So I switched over to different antibiotics, save for the Prednisone, which I had to finish off bcuz A. I had been told to take them all till they were gone, and B. Bcuz I didn't react as much to them, which made their benefit outweigh the risks. I was able to deduce that I was allergic (very slightly) to Prednisone bcuz little bumps would appear on my hands when I took them. I could usually stop them from developing further by taking some 'Dryl. So after all that brouhaha was over and done with, I made a list of all the medicines I reacted to, and I keep it in my purse. The question is, how do I found out which of the medicines I actually have an allergy to, w/out putting my health at risk?

Question #19:

What vitamins would you recommend for a teenage girl?

I am a 5'4", 135 lbs, caucasian, 13 year old girl. I don't have any allergies that I know of, nor diseases or conditions.

What vitamins would you recommend?

Question #20:

I hate this , i cant even have a job because im sick all the time, what i wanna know also is . in all these tests they've done. wouldnt they know by know if i had cancer? That's what im worried about the most, i really don't want to die :( please help
