While things are getting better a lot of things are still a trainwreck on my end.
While my cat has responded to the thyroid medication, she can’t take it as a pill which is the prime reason for all of her side effects (including being vomity as all hell)
So the mighty 15 year old furball is going to be getting a topical gel in her ears, and is on anti-nausea medication and a reduced dose of the pills until she can get on the gel.
That’s one thing that’s getting better…on the other hand, the day after I posted my message about things going on pause, an elderly family member banged themselves up in a fall and is still recovering.
So we are still in wait and see mode over here. When we know more, you’ll know more. 🙁

A minimum of 1 million eggs, at let’s say 25 eggs per year (some periods can release multiple), would still last for 40,000 years. We’re only supposed to be at the 6000-something mark, right?
Wrong. Women are born with 1–2 million potential eggs (in the form of ovarian follicles), but that’s all the eggs they’ll ever have. By puberty, a woman’s egg count might be 1 million; at 25, maybe 300,000. Then, around 35, the decline starts to get a bit steeper, meaning she could lose an even higher number of eggs per month until menopause. Scientists peg the amount of lost eggs at approximately a thousand per month. By the 50’s they are pretty much gone.
