I get migraines often and I am allergic to most pain medication. Is there any herbs (besides White Willow Bark) or any massage techniques, relaxation ideas, etc. that can relieve the pain? I really appreciate the help. :)

My minituare poodle had a low platelet count develop shortly after getting a shot. Obviously I have had her to the Vet and used medication to take care of the immediate problem.

I’m just a little nervous about her next round of immunization shots next year.

Of course, I can’t be 100% certain the shots caused her problem, but I am suspicious. I’m just curious if anyone else here has had an issue.

About 2 weeks ago I asked about constipation in cats & what to do.Someone said to give 1ml of mineral oil 3 to 4 days. After spending a bit of money at the vet I decided to try the suggestion and adjusted the amount to the weight of my cat the way they would if he were to get medication. I would like that person to know it worked "Thank You".He was pretty sick, not eating or drinking and is doing much better. The vet was trying to fix it from the wrong end!

migraines?




i get migraines about 6 times a year. when i get them, i can’t see right, i throw up, and my face and other body parts get numb. one time when i had one, i couldn’t talk. i knew what i wanted to say but it came out as jibberish. my family got worried and took me to the emergency room and the doctors there thought i had brain aneurysm. they did a spinal tap but found nothing wrong. they basically came to the conclusion that i was dehydrated. after that happened, i have drank like no other and started eating healthier. about a month ago, i got a migraine and the same thing happened to where i couldn’t talk. i know i’m not dehydrated; i drink more than anyone i know. i also take medication for migraines but it never seems to work. someone mentioned in passing that i could be having some kind of seizure. do you think that may be possible?

thanks for your help! :)

The vet says that one of our cats has an overactive thyroid, and our options are surgery, medication, or treatment with radioactive iodine (I-131). The vet says that surgery and pills are both problematic and the best choice is the iodine therapy. This treatment requires a week of isolation at the treatment facility (which of itself can be hard on a pet), followed by a period of time at home that they can’t go outside and you have to minimize your contact (because they’re, um, radioactive). Is this treatment worth it? How effective is it? Any side effects in your personal experience?

I recently started taking medication for high blood pressure. My doctor prescribed a beta blocker and a diuretic. However, I am not tolerating the diuretic and was wondering what other types of medication would be effective in a combined therapy with a low dosage of a beta blocker.

Is there really a cure for AIDS?




Interesting story… I went and got and AIDS test today. Fortunately it was negative, but there was something quite curious about what the tester told me. I said that with all of our technological advances, it is amazing we haven’t found a cure for AIDS yet. You know what she said to me? She said, "I believe that there is a cure for AIDS, but the pharmacuetical companies would lose a lot of money if they released a cure. Most AIDS medication costs at least ,000 a month." I was really floored by what she said, and a little pissed off… How do you people think about this?
