DR Ginny, I feel better knowing you got through the panting.  The vet figured she gave us more than enough prednisone, now it doesn't seem so.  I don't want to call her again until Monday.  Did you stay on the mega doses until all the hives were gone or just until they were better?

Thanks for the vibes.

Well, when I had hives and had to take prednisone... I had to continue taking it for a couple of days after my symptoms disappeared.  You have to be tapered off the steroids, and I'm guessing it might be the same for canines.

I can see that our haineshisway.com message board timestamp didn't adjust - another thing for Mr. Bakalor to do whenever he has time.

Yeah, DR Jose, I also remember the "tapering off" part.  I have a feeling something similar will happen when my doctor decides to try taking me off the blood thinners (after I get retired, he said last month).

bk - Just adjust it your profile settings.  Just hit "Auto Detect" and that will take care of it.

Hmm... Interesting.  After talking with my Mom and her doctors and nurses, it looks like she will always be on blood thinners.  However, they will start tapering it off to a very low level - to the point where she'll just have to take one dose every couple of days.  At least that's how I interpreted what they were saying.

That did it, thanks, Jose.  Now, let's get some postin' goin' on!  It's already nine - sorry, eight forty eight.  I manually changed the microwave clock and the stove clock, so I think I'm okay save for changing the clock in the car.  The Clock In The Car - that's the title of my next novel.

HA!

I'm watching the coverage of the ING NYC Marathon.  I didn't realize that one of the commentators is riding right behind the lead runners. -And he's so close that they can hear him - or at least be directly acknowledged by them. ;)

DR Jose, I think the difference between your mom's case and mine is "chronic" vs. "acute."

And thanks for the tech tip for correcting the time stamp!

There is no early voting in Manhattan. Probably because most voting is done by machines. If you want to vote early here you can do it by absentee ballot but it's too late for that now.

DR Jose, she didn't give it a name.  We know she was looking for, and found, eosinophilic cells.  We also saw them on the slide.  And she treated it appropriately.  Keith did a major search to find exactly what it is.  Just looking at the photo is enough.  First I want him better & then I hope his beautiful face isn't scarred.

The booties aren't enough & we need to find one of those big collars for him to wear.  I hate those things.

On TV Tonight!™

ABC - EXTREME HOME MAKEOVER, DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES, BROTHERS & SISTERS
CBS - THE AMAZING RACE, COLD CASE, THE UNIT
NBC - NFL Football (Patriots vs. Colts, isn't it?)
HBO - TRUE BLOOD
SHO - DEXTER


Very good reporting on the football game, Matt; you are correct.  And despite what AOL Televison has listed, the game being telecast is not a REPEAT broadcast.

This morning Keith found an article about the dermatitis Sherlock is suffering from.  His face looks just like the dog in the photo.Click Here

Last night he began panting from the prednisone.  We are deciding if we should skip tonight's dose.




That looks horrible.  Poor Sherlock (Dang for about the 400th time I first wrote Shylock).

I don't think either one of your cases was very cute.

That was my first thought (great minds often think alike).  This system tends to sign me out more often than the last one.

DR Jane - my experience with prednisone started with injections in the ER and a prescription for pills.  When I went to the doctor at the end of the week, as directed by the ER, I told him, "Now I understand why they give this stuff to athletes!"  I was wound up so tightly that I couldn't sleep and had a appetite like I'd had when pregnant.  But, it did take care of the hives.

One of my mantras is:  Everything's a trade-off.

Sherlock is lethargic which could be from the antibiotic, and the fact he is a bit depressed.

The Centipede...

 
This guy was lonely and so he decided life would be more fun if he had a
pet.
 
So he went to the pet store and told the owner that he wanted to buy an
unusual pet. After some discussion he finally bought a centipede,
(100 leg bug), which came in a little white box to use for his house.
 
He took the box home, found a good location for the box, and decided he
would start off by taking his new pet to the bar for a drink. So he asked
the centipede in the box, 'would you like to go to Frank's place with me and
have a beer?
 
But there was no answer from his new Pet. This bothered him a bit, but he
waited a few minutes and then asked him again, 'How about going to the bar and having a drink with me?' but again, there was no answer from his new friend and pet.
 
So he waited a few minutes more, thinking about the situation. He decided to ask him one more time. This time putting his face up against the centipede's house and shouting, 'Hey, in there! Would you like to go to Frank's place and have a drink with me?
 
 
YOU ARE GOING TO LOVE THIS......

 
 
A little voice came out of the box: 'I heard you the first time! I'm putting
my f++king shoes on!
'

Here's a question:  Does anyone here have both the Tony Awards version and the Ed Sullivan version of Turkey Lurkey Time (they must be decent and viewable quality) that they can upload somewhere so my choreographer can get them on his computer?  I don't remember how all that works - otherwise I have to go to a place to copy my DVDs and I don't really have the time and if it's on the computer hosted at some place like photobucket for video, it would be really easy for him.
