Granny's gone and done it again

[Rambling Iris]

@Cynthia12. DH got the C&S back on his stomach abscess drainage. It came back that the antibiotic he is on is only an intermediate. Cipro and several others came back as a 'susceptible' on the sensitivity.

They said they are going to leave him on the Augmentin, which is the intermediate. Have you ever heard of passing up an "S" drug for an "I" when dealing with a post surgical abscess? I have to admit, I haven't. Every doctor I have worked with goes right for the antibiotic that has the highest "S" rating to it.

Every doctor I ever worked for went for the highest "S" rating on the sensitivity, even if that meant changing tie script the patient was on. And they did follow up C&S a week after the antibiotic was done. I worked pediatrics for 10 years and have plated a lot of cultures, some of the growth is very pretty vivid colors.
Granny I'm working on my second cup and know that I'm going to need at least 1 more.

I'm working on my second cup too but my cups are like travel mugs. Maybe 16 oz.not sure.

I make a 12 cup pot of coffee every morning and drink all of it myself! My son sends me a 5 pound bag of coffee beans about every 3 months so there is no danger of my running out. BBTL peaches are calling.

Im hungry, Guess I should go wandering around the torture chamber and see what I can scratch up.

I also don't understand why she wasn't given blood? Did they even mention it? I'm so sorry, my heart is heavy for you both.

Delaware I think. I've had chickens on and off since I was around 9 I think..

Do you still vaccinate the same way? Star had bad reactions to her puppy shots and vet said she should only be given one at a time. No 3ways,ect..

I'm glad it made it.

Shivers... Cant even stand the smell of a peach.

How!? They’re so yummy

They are a pain though, one more nail to cut.

True. But I’m gonna start taking him to the groomer or the vet to have them done instead. He’s too wiggly for me to do them alone. I can get one or two nails at a time if I try but then I forget which ones I’ve done.

 

[ShrekDawg]

Oh and we do have that sling thing but haven’t tried it yet. We probably will at some point. But even with that, I’m so afraid of quicking him.

I'm going to. Maybe he's seen it before. I. Going to tell him of your experience. I didn't quite understand what you meant with saying..I.. did you own these dogs and the one that lived?

The puppy I owned. The other two dogs were adults. They were dogs I bred. One was diagnosis about a month after her yearly vaccines. The other was an older dog . They all lived but had to go in regularly for blood checks

 

[h2oratt]

I had one dog out of many that nails would grow very fast into a circle causing it to grow back into the pad. I based all dogs after that one as being the same but I never had that problem again. Keeping the dew claws is a new way of thinking for many of us because we were told they served no purpose to the dog. Some of us hang on to the old ways because(why fix what isn't broken) We just need more education in the matter. Tails? I've seen a few I wish were lopped off! they hurt when they are banging against my shins. lol

Yes in Europe they don’t allow cropping of tails or ears.
The tail thing is because the tail gets damaged during hunting maybe. They do look strange with a long tail

Have you asked them why?
