I suspect Metacam side effects--other option(s)?
Comments (47)We almost lost our 15 month old Cockapoo and we fear it was due to this drug 'Metacam'. We brought our dog to the vet with a slightly sore paw, nothing we were overly concerned about as he was putting weight on the foot and in good spirits. Reluctantly we agreed to our dog being given an antibiotic and an injection of Metacam (we felt this was a bit unnecessary but we trusted the vets opinion and that we were doing the best for our dog). That same day the dog was groggy and lethargic. By that same night our dog was groaning with pain so we gave him half a painkiller prescribed by the vet. The next morning our poor dog couldn't move, he lay unresponsive and couldn't lift his body weight upright. He wasn't eating or drinking a thing! If we touched any part of his body he was in severe pain. Our dog is very energetic with a great appetite and we were very worried! We returned to the vet and found our dog was running a very high temperature. The vet was adamant that this was as a result of his sore paw and possible bone infection and was very critical of the dog breed. Our dog was kept in over night and medicated with paracetamol and an IV antibiotic. Within 24hours our dog was returning to normal. The vet insisted we do an x-ray and nothing showed up. Thankfully we were able to discharge our pet after two nights but found the vet very reluctant to talk about what and how much medication he had prescribed our dog. We have no way to ever know for sure the reason our dog fell unresponsive within a couple of hours but we can't shake the feeling that it has a strong connection with the Metacam he was administered on first meeting the vet. We have also noticed our dog's weight is not correct on his medication label - it is double his weight! Finally, when leaving the vet practice with the prescribed medications, the vet had to call us back as he has prescribed double painkiller doses. The vet carried out a blood test without our knowledge and still has not disclosed the result of this blood test. When asked to discuss our concerns the vet became extremely defensive and condescending towards us. We would love to put our minds at ease and find out if any other dog owners experienced this reaction to Metacam or if it sounds like a over dosage of Metacam?...See MoreDesign Finalization is So Close - Option 1 or Option 2 - Thoughts???
Comments (3)Frankly, all I see is a barrier island which is an island blocking the major paths. You either need a smaller island or a small work table there to make things more functional and to gain better traffic flow. We cook from fridge to prep/sink to cooktop. (Do a search for a Ice Water Stone Fire for more info.) To go from the fridge to sink, you have to walk around the island. You also have to walk through the cooking area. It's better to eliminate or at least minimize walking through work zones. I don't think you have room for such a big island. And it looks like your aisles are only about 42" behind the range which aren't wide enough for people to walk behind the cook. Aisles should be minimum of 48" for that. Note that is a minimum. I can't read the aisle widths between island/fridge and island/sink but they look quite narrow. Again, you should really have 48" aisles, minimum. People often want wider in front of the fridge to allow for door swing. I don't think you have room for an island bigger than this. To be honest, in your situation I would probably go for a smaller, mobile work table/cart/butcher block. This gives enough width for someone to walk behind the range safely and to not have to veer to walk around a barrier island to prepare a meal....See MoreDid I finally find "The One"?

Comments (30)@Localeater, Yes, I've been on Outdoorsy and RVShare. There are quite a few locally, but some do not allow music festivals. IDK if they could drop something off there, but I could also search at the destination site. @summersrhythm_z6a, thanks so much. We have no experience driving a larger vehicle or towing, so I am thinking the class B is a better size for us to manage. I realize 4 nights could be a lot. But most of the day we will be at the festival. I've got so much grading to do, but maybe we can work on this over the weekend. Oh well, we have the concert tickets, the hotel, and lockers, and I think car parking. They keep announcing new bands every day, so it is getting a little exciting, thinking about going somewhere again. That this is in driving distance is good vs. having to book a flight....See Morehermajesty
