  • Neurotic cat driving me insane!?

    I just lived with it when the cat started peeing in my chair. I got a lether sofa. Non absorbant. He peed on my bed, i bouch a plastic cover and stripped it bare daily. I eventually just shut my bedroom door and kept him out. He has hissed in terror at my other cat for 6 frigging months. I neutered the other cat so he would feel less inclined to smack down crazy cat. And spike their food with calm down herbals. He starts scratching up the carpet, i get him a decent scratching post of his prefeerred kind. He sratches up carpet fibers and, poops, and buries the poop in carpet fiber. Tonight, i clean the kitchen and the litter, he poops on the carpet and doest bury it.

    There are 3 litter boxes, 2 cats.

    His preferred box hasnt moved

    Neither litter, nor food has changed

    My cats were raised together. In 6.5 yrs, they were cuddling and making out constantly. Then, kaboom!

    No kaboom in days since neutering his brother.

    Also,"i confess leaping from tbe shower and chasing him with a broom was....unproductive.

    Please help. Ive had it. I used to work with bipolar and schizo people, but even i need marginally more sanity than this

  • (endocrineology) suddenly low potassium.?

    Hi folks, ive had my thyroid removed. My parathyroids are damaged. The end result was, and has been for 7yrs, my calcium and magnesium levels require suppliments. A week and a half ago, I started throwing up for maybe 2 days. Since then, my potassium has started dropping lower and lower. I picked up suppliments, but it was tanking before I bought them. Heart hurt, muscle spasms, and pins and needles feeling up my legs. I have no idea wtf is up. My gp blew it off. I'm looking for a new endocrineologist, but I can't get seen yet.

  • Lump in armpit gone post massage?!?

    Ok, I've been getting lumps under my armpits. They go away after awhile, but they keep comming back. I've got lots of neck and shoulder tension. Today, I decided to spend part of my tax return on a massage. She was awesome, though it really hurt, and did myofacial (spelling?) release. She also worked some on each armpit. Last night, I noticed the gumball sized lump under my arm is gone completely. WTF is going on here? Clearly, it's got to do with lymph drainage, but wtf? I need more detail than this. Help?

  • How do I exercise without hurting myself? (hypermobility)?

    Ok. Background. I'm 27/F from Ohio. I have hypoparathyroidism, hypothyroidism (thyroid was removed) asthma, and neuropathy. I'd prefer not to post my weight, but it's over 200lbs. I'll share that much. I have double jointed knees, shoulders, and pelvis. However, one hip also has arthritis and I'm being treated by an osteopath. I've tried chiropractic, PT, seeing my doc, meds, and most stuff I can think of. the osteopath has fixed a LOT of my neck problems.

    Lately, she's just been putting me back together. In the past 2 months, I've popped my shoulder out reaching for something, popped out my pubis bone, my sacral illaic joint, and strained my right hip. I've basically had most of my pelvis shift a few millimetres out of place ALL THE TIME.

    I need to exercise and drop weight.. How? I can't figure it out. I was told walking was a bad plan. I nocked my joint back out today getting out of bed. Swimming was encouraged, but nothing else. I don't have daily access to a pool. What else can I do that won't nock something out. I can't sit down on the floor and lean forward without screwing something up. I need to drop weight and gain muscle to stabilize the joints. Any ideas? Please.

    Also, if anyone has any ideas on how to better loose weight when taking synthroid, that'd be so cool!

  • How is it these stupid songs could be this relevant to depressed people?

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=urxGJRu1pRY For Now, Avenue Q. For all those who feel like they have no purpose, and are upset cause they feel like no one else feels that way. Well, the reality of the situation is soooo many people feel like that it's the subject of a puppet musical. (no puppets in link)

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q0h0a27_jPQ Silver Lining. It's by Garfunkle and Oates. It's a message to all those who are depressed about being dumped. I ..LOVE it.

    Anyone else run into songs like this?
