My Chunky Monkey Kitty

I recently brought my cat to the vet. Kitty is 6-7 months old now, so it’s time for her to get a rabies shot. I also wanted to get her a standard wellness check.

The 5 minute car ride there was…fun.

  

When we got there, I wasn’t shocked by the nurses’ reactions.

They put her on the kitty scale, where she clocked in at 9 pounds.

Later, Boyfriend and I ended up in a pet store and I got kitty some Natural Health Food. We opened it up and gave her just a little when we got home.

Do you guys have fat cats? If not, HOW DID YOU STOP THIS FROM HAPPENING?!?!?

Heart Palpitations

It's kinda sweet

Does anyone else get heart palps? And anyone have any good solutions that don't involve not drinking? Hugging, perhaps?

Doctor, Revisited: A Slightly Better Experience

So, after my head troubles last week, I decided maybe I should get a real doctor.  I went to one last year, but he sucked.

The last  one is an exaggeration BUT ALL THE OTHER ONES HAPPENED.  I get medical history, but medical history does not mean you get to be a nosy parker. Plus he said this and it made me stabby

Anyway, I went to a new doctor. She was...okay.

So yeah.  On the up side, she asked appropriate questions and wasn’t too nosy. On the down side, she wasn’t really listening to me. But I guess I’ll stick with her. I actually rarely get sick, but I need somewhere to go for  those rare time I do. The minute clinic didn’t quite do it for me. Win?

[Also, I just realized that A Beer for the Shower posted something similar about doctors last week. Is it doctor season or something?!? Anyway, I feel a little bit awkward not mentioning it, so check out their useless doctor post here.]

Grumble Headache Grumble

So, as I wrote about last week, I had a headache the weekend before. What I didn’t blog about, though, was how it came back on Wednesday and lasted the next 4-5 days. It was mostly on the right side of my face/head (though it jumped to the left one night).

t’s also why I was less active in the blogger/twitter world, in case anyone noticed or missed me (doubtful).

  

On Thursday, I went to the minute clinic, and was diagnosed with either a migraine or a sinus infection or something more serious but less likely.  

I also get super woozy when we start talking about arteries or anything blood related and I almost passed out

She gave me antibiotics in case it is a weird sinus infection and sent me on my way. On Friday, my eyes were still aching and my head/neck hurt.  I saw Boyfriend.

I gave up on doctors after this experience 

I started to feel a little bit better Saturday/Sunday. The pain felt like it was coming from my neck more, so I’m thinking maybe I pulled it somehow very badly, because I googled and it looks like a neck muscle can cause pain all over one side of your head including your forehead and eye.

I’m considering going to a doctor. We’ll see.

Sigh.

Has this happened to anyone else? And before anyone comments with scary advice about how I’m having ministrokes  or tumors or aneurysms or any equally horrifying things, this is not accompanied by a fever or dizziness or blurred vision or nausea/vomiting or disorientation.

Thanks bunches.
