Tipper - adrenal tumor/breathing issues

Ooooh, I'm so happy to hear the melatonin worked for Tipper overnight! I can just picture you watching Tipper sleeping peacefully and feeling so relieved. I pray you and your Tipper have many,many more of those peaceful nights.
About those gossipy neighbors, please don't pay any attention to what you hear, simply not worth it. You have better things to worry about like your precious Tipper and other babies of yours. They have nothing better to do so they gossip about others and I bet they are envious of you for a lot of things. It's sad but that's not one of your problems.:)
Ginger's been resting/sleeping since we got back from the vet. Gave her prednisone per vet and we will see if her appetite comes back. The results should be tomorrow.

Thank goodness the Melatonin worked and you both can get some rest. :) xxxx

Hi Everyone:
I should have taken some of that melatonin myself!!! The hospital called today. They want to move Tipper's cardiac appointment to January so she can see the Dr. that has been there and the IMS will do her Ultra Sound for her tumor the same day. It was originally scheduled after the eye Dr. on the 25th of November. I don't know if this is good or bad. I really couldn't bare bad news from both on one day. Don't know if this is a good idea or not. That means I am going to Pittsburgh the 25th only for an eye appointment, but I do not miss any appointments for her so we will be there. The wind is so wicked here tonite and the cold air is coming in. I am so glad I want to see snow, and no more storms as I was worried sick for Tipper this time. Thank you everyone for your support. Blessings

Hi Patti,
I'm so glad Tipper had a good night in spite of the storms. We had loud heavy rain here for a few hours starting at about 3am I think. I could not believe it but Trixie did not get up and hide in the bathroom. We had no thunder but the rain was pounding. That will usually be enough to send her hiding...but not last night. A surprise for sure.
Now it's windy here and temps are dropping...it was mild all day but it's changing now.
Hope you don't lose power and that Tipper has another good night's sleep tonight!

You can take melatonin too:):):)

I did get a headache from it though after 3 or 4 nites when I tried it:)

Thread hijack...sorry Patti

Addy,

I tried melatonin. It gave me a headache too. Maybe it has something to do with the fact that I have migraines. Do you have them also? Just curious. Xxxxx

Patti, I'm so glad that the melatonin worked for Tipper!!!
You both need the rest.

Hi Everyone:
Tipper was acting very strange last nite. I went to bed and turned my tv on like usual. There was a lot of wind last nite and sleet as it was trying to snow. Tipper would wake up and put her head up and listen for 10 minutes at a time, then she would smell the air. It is the funniest thing, I don't know what is going on. She was uncomfortable with the noise outside and finally went in the closet. It is very cold out this morning and she has walked. She is sleeping at my feet with lots of throaty noise. She seems to have lost weight as she is not as barrel shaped right now. When I pick her up she still seems heavy. She drank a lot yesterday and was hungry, I don't know at this point if it is because of no lentils or the dose is not right. I will find out tomorrow if her weight is down as she has blood pressure and weight checks tomorrow. Blessings

They can sometimes sense a change in the air pressure, so she may have been worried about that, was the pressure low last night withe the wind?

Kathy- I do get migraines but they have been a bit better since I switched allergy nasal sprays.:)

Addy:
I think the pressure was low and she has a real keen sense for it. I just don't know what all the smelling of the air was about. I take medicine daily to prevent migraines. I am wondering if it could give our dogs a headache??? Blessings
