First hour: Unleashed: The Pet Show on feral cats and Lollypop Farm's equine program
Second hour: Second Opinion LIVE explores drug allergies
It's Unleashed: The Pet Show. What happens when you decide to bring a feral cat into your home? We’ll talk about how to help socialize feral cats for family life. We’ll also learn about Lollypop Farm’s equine program. And Dr. John Sampson, veterinarian at Greece Animal Hospital, will be in studio to answer your questions about pet health and behavior.
Then in our second hour, it's Second Opinion LIVE! Did you have a reaction to penicillin when you were a child, and now have a “Penicillin Allergy” sticker on your medical chart? Have you ever thought about getting re-tested as an adult to see if you are truly allergic? Our guest, Dr. Allison Ramsey, suggests that there are good personal and public health reasons to be re-tested, and also safe ways. Having an allergy label to antibiotics, local anesthesia, IV contrast and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs all affect the care you receive. We will talk in-depth about drug allergies, and how they affect your health. Our guest:
- Allison Ramsey, MD, allergy and clinical immunology at Rochester Regional Health, and clinical assistant professor of medicine at the University of Rochester School of Medicine and Dentistry
