The night from Sunday to Monday was a bit of an adventure for the Chonk, and not in a good way. He had a massive allergic reaction to something – exactly what, we don’t know – and broke out in hives and swelling. We made a 00:30 visit to the emergency vet in Etoy for antihistamines and cortisone shots, and then I spent the next hour cleaning all the floors (again, but with plain water this time) to make sure it wasn’t the floor cleaner I’d used earlier in the day that wasn’t the cause of the problem.
He went down like a rock, and spent most of monday completely wiped out. Seemed to perk up this morning.
I’ve been completely useless for the past 3 days. Between a cold and my seasonal allergies, I was a wreck. I couldn’t breathe, couldn’t sleep, my nose was the Niagara Falls of snot. I’d wake up several times a night, wheezing and whistling (turns out, that’s asthma!) I went to the docs yesterday and got doped up to the gills with nose washes, nose sprays, cough syrup, asthma inhaler, but damn, everything works for now :)
