Still struggling

Hi, I am still struggling after the dog attack and my breathing is rubbish, so my doctor advised doubling the dose in the morning and evening of my brown inhaler (clenil modulite). But now have pain in ribs and top of diaphragm and going dizzy and feel nauseous when trying to sleep. Getting money out later for taxi's for the doctors just incase. Any ideas about why I have this pain would be very grateful 🙏 🥲

Sorry to hear that, it's been a while now, poor you. I would get back to the doctor asap. Or could one come out to you as you are feeling so bad (a bit unsafe if you are dizzy)?

Good luck and I hope you feel better soon xx

A couple of Fridays ago we were nearly home with our cavapoos and 2 Jack Russell's got out of a house and attacked archie the one I was walking, during the attack he backed out of his harness and ran into the road but stopped thankfully by a parked car. They had me a couple of times through my jeans only bruising though. By the time we got in the front door I was on my hands and knees trying to regulate my breathing but it hasn't been the same since. Archie is OK that's the main thing to me 😁

that is not acceptable . they may be small dogs but can still kill . what if they go for a child. To many people have bougth dogs with no idea how to control them . it isnt fair on the dogs themselves either .

they attacked you !did you report it ? i do hope you did .

it has obviously affected you too . hope you soon feel better

I am so sorry to hear that.

No I didn't report it as they have always lived there as they just got out and I was too concerned as to get home as I couldn't breath. I was literally on all fours when I got in. The most precious thing was archie the one they attacked came over to me to see if I was alright. What a precious moment that was 🤗

The dogs together still attacked you . You should at least talk to the owners. You dont have to complain to them ,.just make them aware . Probably will not believe you but the dogs must not escape again.

She was actually there and she is Polish and doesn't speak a word of English. She has put more chicken wire across her railings, so hopefully it will never happen again 👍
