Would anyone know the name of a good canine cardiologist in the eastern suburbs of Melbourne, Australia?

We have a cavalier king charles spaniel with expected MVD. The vet wants to wait until symptoms appear before prescribing medication, but our online research suggests that we should engage a cardiologist to keep ahead of the symptoms by running tests now and recording her asymptomatic condition for future comparisons, and possibly prescribing some medication, dietary supplements, etc. Has anyone had a similar experience in Melbourne and know of a good cardiologist in the eastern suburbs. Apparently, there are two main cardiologists in Melbourne, Dr Richard Woolley and Dr Russell Mitten. They are quite a drive from the eastern suburbs, but certainly worth it if you good people have some positive recommendations. Many thanks.


I would call the Melbourne Veterinary Specialist Centre in Glen Waverley and ask them if they have a visiting cardiologist. Ph: 9887 8844.

I know Southern Animal Referral Centre has a cardiologist.

could anyone explain this tooth pain to me?

so on sunday (about three days ago) I woke up and my bottom right molars were a little sore. after about an hour or so the pain went away. on monday i didn’t feel any pain when i woke up but i had little twinges of pain about every hour or so throughout the day, and it got worse towards the end of the day. that night i didn’t sleep very well at all. i kept on waking up in pain and it was very hard for me to try to go back to sleep. the pain spread all the way from my lower molars to my my lower canine teeth, through my bottom right jaw, down to the right side of my neck and my right ear. i got up and filled a cup with cool water and got an ice pack.i put the ice pack on my pained jaw and let some cool the water sit in my right cheek where my pained teeth were. that seemed to mask the pain a little. i kept on falling asleep with cold water in my mouth and would wake up every 30 minutes or so and find myself soaked in the water i had fallen asleep with in my mouth and pain in my teeth again. that day, the pain was the same it had been that night except it wasn’t persistent. it came and left in intervals on different levels of pain. last night, the pain was about the same as the night before, but i wasn’t awake as much because i was exhausted from the night before. today was like yesterday except when it went into a painful phase, it hurt much worse. the pain can be anywhere from a 0 to a 10. the worse the pain is the more it spreads to my neck and ear. after i came home from school today, it hurt so bad that i started sucking on an ice cube and the pain nearly went away and now if im not sucking on an ice cube, it becomes painful, almost like a burn. if i stop sucking on an ice cube and try to eat something, the pain automatically comes back. gah, i hate this. btw im 14, so idk if there’s a possibility of the pain being caused by a wisdom tooth. any help is much appreciated.
Thanks, guys! i’m going to see my dentist on monday anyway because i have to get a small cavity filled,so i guess i’ll tell them about this, too.
UPDATE- hey guys i went to the dentist in a tremendous pain and they did and x-ray and told me the nerve in my tooth died and had become infected (basically the inside of my tooth got infected) and then they sent me to a specialist to get a root canal (which after ALOT of Novocaine, was virtually painless). I feel much better now! thanks for the help guys! vote amongst yourselves!

Any pain that spreads across the jaw and affects several teeth is probably not a tooth ache. It sounds like it is being caused by a facial nerve called the trigeminal nerve, causing a condition called trigeminal neuralgia (TN).

The fact that it comes and goes certainly makes TN a very likely cause. It is caused by this nerve misfiring and giving off pain signals, when in fact there is no injury. Typical TN pain lasts for less than a minute, then settles down for a random period of time, then flares up again.

Here are some links with a little more info:

http://facial-neuralgia.org/conditions/tn.html

http://www.stjosephsatlanta.org/gamma_knife_center/trigeminal.html

The second link contains a picture which clearly shows the lower nerve and how it innervates the teeth and jaw. If this nerve is affected you may get pain like yours.
Go see your doctor and get properly diagnosed. You may need to see a dentist as well and get some x-rays taken.

I have had TN since November, and it rapidly got worse, quickly spreading from a small area to the upper and lower jaw. I was given medication for it which has worked, where opiate painkillers I was given didn’t.

Huge pike

The infamous pikes are among North America’s most predatory and carnivorous fish. Most of them are favored by the fishing industry for their fighting abilities (on rod and reel) and their palatability.

There are 6 species of true pike. The Muskellunge (Muskie), Tiger Muskie, Northern Pike, Chain Pickeral, Redfin/Grass Pickeral, and Amur Pike.

All species of Esox have the same body shape. They are very elongated, torpedo shape, slightly compressed, and have long snouts shaped like a duck’s bill, full of large razor sharp canine and conical teeth. The head and mouth are huge, nearly 1/4 the size of the fish itself. The dorsal and anal fins are set very far back, typical of an ambush hunting fish. All of these fins are rounded, but the cadual fin is forked. The scales are small and fine.

Coloring is nearly identical with with all species. This more than anything makes identification difficult. Basically all pikes have a back that is greenish to light brown, and fades to lighter colors of siver, grey, blue, tan, and/or gold, then the belly fades to a creamy white. The real distinction between species is mottling, snout bluntness, scale location, and of course size.

Northern Pike (Esox lucius): (4′) irregular oval shaped yellow markings on typical background. Long snout. Cheeks scaled. (Shown in picture)

Muskellunge (Esox masquinongy): (6′) dark vertical diagonal bands. Scaled upper cheeks. Fairly blunt snout.

Tiger Muskie (hybrid between latter and former): (6′) darker tiger-like vertical bands. Blunt snout.

Chain Pickeral (Exox niger): (2′) dark chain-like markings. Long snout. Opercles fully scaled.

Redfin/Grass Pickeral (Esox americanus): (1′) blunt snout, small body. Vain-like markings. There are two recognized subspecies in this genus; Esox americanus americanus, the redfin pickerel, and Esox americanus vermiculatus, the grass pickerel.

Amur Pike (E. reicherti): (4′) Doubtful it’s even imported, originates from Siberia.

In order to have a pike, you must collect them from their natural range. This means either dip-netting, seining, or angling for them. Young fry are fairly easy to collect with netting, but once they put on size, they become elusive and therefore other collecting techniques must be administrated. When catching them by angling, you must use a wireleader, live or artificial bait, and of course tackle appropriate to the size of fish you want to catch (in some cases this may not be a variable). These fish occur only in North America, throughout the eastern and mid United States, and up north into Canada and Alaska. Check the Department of Fish and Game before collecting or keeping any, because these fish are illegal to have just about everywhere where they are not native.

All pikes are feroscious predators that can consume prey nearly their own size. Prey is ambushed by the pike in dense vegetation, where the pike moves into a spring-loaded “S” shaped position, then suddenly strikes, visciously catching a morsel in the mouth. Once secure, the victim is swallowed head first. Large pikes are fully capable of biting a victim in two and delivering a nasty bleeding bite (usually when out of the water).

For your aquarium, most pikes are not suitable. They cannot be kept with each other because a pike’s worst enemy is it’s own species. They are notoriously cannibalistic and will not hesitate to devour another specimen (especially in younger individuals). Therefore you will have to keep one in a tank by itself, or with extremely carefully selected tankmates. This means something fully longer and taller than the pike itself, however, accidents can happen. Overall it is best to keep the pike in a large display tank by itself. The size of this tank must be of certain size depending on the species. For smaller pickerals, a tank of about 60 gallons is needed. For muskies and northern pikes a tank of 1000 to 1500 gallon capacity is a must, specifically if you intend to keep the pike throughout adulthood. Give these monsters plenty of dense vegetation, with a slight void in it which will give the pike a lair. A flowerpot or other tubular object can also be used to provide a man-made ambush site. Keep the water neutral, well areated, and clean, with a temperature between 60 and 70 degrees (can easily be kept much cooler, even frozen over). If you can’t provide water this cold, an aqua-cooler is a wise investment. PIKES ONLY EAT LIVE FOOD. This means plenty of shiners, nightcrawlers, insects, goldfish, crayfish, and just about anything else alive that the pike can swallow. It is best to use soft-bodied elongated prey, than spiny deep-bodied prey. Allow periods of fasting. If you cannot provide live food to your pike, release it where you found it in the summer time.

Pikes are a world recognized tankbuster from our country. They represent a side of “wild America” rairly experienced.

Delta

Delta

German Shepherd and Husky Mix, 1.5 years old, Spayed female.

They told me that I’m a Busy Busy Busy Bee and I think that fits me just fine! I’m very smart and I’m a glass-half-full kinda gal. What’s in the glass? Can I drink it? I love life and I’d love for someone to help me experience things, but not too fast. I’ll play with my own toys or we can play together. I had heartworm and it took a while to get a clean bill of health, so please give me heartguard for the rest of my life to prevent that from happening again. I like to chew and I chewed up some towels at the shelter when they weren’t looking. I’m going to try not to do that again. On the up side, I’m housebroken and I never soiled my cage!

ASPCA Canine-ality™ Assessment rating: Orange/Busy Bee

Adoption Information:

Medium size / weighs 35 lbs.

Delta would do best in a home with dog experienced adults and teenagers (over the age of 13).

No cats, likes other dogs but needs work.

Delta is housebroken, spayed, microchipped and has had a full veterinary checkup and vaccines.

Please come to the shelter to meet Delta and speak to an adoption counselor for more information about her. Thank you.
