OMG the deodorant is a real irritant: one of our friends, who works with my OH, is allergic to any kind of aerosol deodorant or perfume and people think 'oh, you're just complaining' because we've all walked past that person in the street with too much perfume and gagged, haven't we. Well he's got it so bad he basically stops breathing because his lungs stop working. Now he's found out he has COPD and he's late-30s :S I doubt it's as bad as that but worth bearing in mind. I agree as well, I doubt the wshing powder is making it any better to. God luck getting out soon xx
so.. it’s still early days but: sneezing has decreased. she’s still sneezing — but it’s not huge fits for 30-60 seconds like she was having. more so 5 or so sneezes every once in a while. it’s still daily, but small sneezes over massive fits.
her last huge sneezing fit was Wednesday. after that I took the blankets out, scrubbed the lino, and there seems to be improvement. the blanket was massively covered in fur, and needed a wash, but I wanted to keep it as it smelt of them (but obviously not at the cost of her health so it was removed).
it’s hard to work out what the issue is. she seems to have sneezing fits usually triggered by the hay; i’d say 8/10. but then the other 2/10 times she’s just resting, taking a nap, grooming herself. not around the hay. she’s on the opposite side. and it’s not *everytime* she eats hay either [emoji2955]
BF said ofc her nose was said to be quite upset (red, angry looking) by the vet. so if it’s already irritated, everything is gonna irritate it which won’t help in finding the cause!
I might try and order some other hay, and see if that could be the issue. just ruling things off at this point.
blankets didn’t seem to help her sneezing - furry and with hay on them. she’d sniff them and start sneezing usually.
maybe her random sneezes when she’s resting is caused by the hay still?? hay spores on her or just in the room.. idk!! [emoji21]
I could go back to the vet but I don’t know what they could do. she had xrays of her teeth/skull & chest, and those were sent to a specialist. everything came back clear. her teeth are fine from a perspective of looking. heart was listened too and it’s clear, as are her lungs [emoji20] it’s a mystery.
