Q5: Will my children get pemphigus vulgaris?

Pemphigus Vulgaris Network
There's absolutely no reason to assume they will. Although genetic factors are probably involved in PV, it's not hereditary. Very, very occasionally more than one person in a family has PV, but this hardly ever happens. Unfortunately lots of people do find the drugs (and the illness) make them very tired. There's nothing you can do to stop this but you'll probably find it easier if you can try and structure daily life to include some resting time.

What is Pemphigus Vulgaris?

Pemphigus Vulgaris Network
Pemphigus Vulgaris (PV) is one of a group of rare, relapsing auto-immune diseases causing blistering of the skin and mucous membranes (eg mouth, nose, throat and genitals). In pemphigus disorders the immune system makes a mistake, views cells in the skin and mucous membranes as foreign and an immune response is triggered. Affected individuals have high concentrations of antibodies produced by the immune system.

How is Pemphigus Vulgaris diagnosed?

Pemphigus Vulgaris Network
Pemphigus Vulgaris is rare and most general practitioners (GPs) have never seen it. So it's essential the diagnosis of PV is made by a dermatologist (a hospital doctor specialising in skin conditions) or another medical specialist in dealing with PV. Early diagnosis is important because the sooner you get treated the sooner you can start to feel more comfortable before it becomes too severe.

How is Rosacea different to Acne Vulgaris?

Frequently Asked Questions :: Acne Rosacea Treatment & S...
Is is common that Rosacea does not present with blackheads that are seen with Acne Vulgaris. Also the age of onset, and the location of redness is a clue. Rosacea is commonly an adult disease, and is generally restricted to the nose, cheeks, chin and forehead. It can coexist with acne vulgaris. Some Rosacea sufferers have a significant acne component in their symptoms so it can be easily confused with acne vulgaris. The papules and pustules of Rosacea tend to be less follicular in origin.

Chihuahuas can be very good with children if they are trained to handle it well. However, small children can be very dangerous for Chihuahuas because they may not understand how fragile these animals are or have the physical dexterity to avoid hurting them by laying, falling or stepping on them. It's always best to hold the Chi while small children are about. Then you can let the children approach to pet and pamper under your direct coaching and supervision.

When you have just a few red spots, or pimples, you have a mild form of acne. Severe acne can mean hundreds of pimples that can cover the face, neck, chest, and back. Or, it can be bigger, solid, red lumps that are painful (cysts). Most young people get at least mild acne. It usually gets better after the teen years.

Q5: Can I house more than one boa in the same cage?

FAQ
The answer here is a cautious "yes." We have successfully housed more than one boa together and have even had productive breeding occur. Rosy Boas are not cannibalistic by nature. They are thought to be "loners" in nature for the most part, although some think they may congregate in small numbers to brumate. We have found on occasion that a boa becomes stressed when too crowded, begins to feed poorly or regurgitate, then does much better when housed alone.
