Let's see....where to start.
Grace: I totally agree with you and I know it's bad to stop taking antibiotics before they are finished. I was on 1800mg's of Augmentin a day. It tore my stomach apart! I took it for as long as I could possibly stand it and when my arm got better I quit a few days early. Yes, I told the doctor and he said that was the best thing I could be taking and to try to suffer through it. I did for as long as I could. It's really hard to work while your doubled over in pain, can't eat, nauseated, and thats not counting all the time spent on the pot...if you know what I mean?Shame on me I know, but it worked out this time.
One thing I didn't make very clear last night was that he didn't bite me he layed a claw in my vein. He didn't tear me he just did that famous puncture wound! So, I'm hoping that won't be as bad as a bite. At least not as far as infection. I'm sure we will all be fine just slightly wounded!
I squirted PB and he didn't even care! He didn't lick it off or even raise his head up! BRAT! So I'm hoping sometime today he will. His head is still draining so I think he will be fine soon. I think I'll try Kelly's idea and squirt him around his nose. He'll have to lick that!
I also think I'm going to try the laundry bag with a drawstring. That should work pretty good as long as I can get him in there!
Lori: ROFLOL!!! I understand that head shaking! Even I was doing that. How could something as simple as requesting medication dosage turn into all this hoopla!!!
Jen: Scruffing him is what got us in this mess to start with. I try to avoid the towel to lessen the trauma for them and make it as quick as possible but that didn't work last night! From now on he's getting the towel and the drawsting laundry bag!
You guys are so wonderful!!! All the advice and concern are so appreciated! I'm pain free, PB is resting so we are almost a happy family again. It will be perfect once the green goo quits running down PB's head!! YUK!!
