Excellent presentation. I had a fair layman knowledge of Cushing Syndrome before watching your video, so that probably helped me understand where my little boy is now, and how to help him. I did observe a change in his personality when trilostane was not administered for about a week. (The lapse occurred due to what I see as negligence on the part of the vendor and I am taking steps to never deal again with them again. I have transferred my dog's prescription to PetSmart pharmacy, which appears to be significantly more responsive, and recognizes the importance of prompt filling and delivery of medications.)
Thanks doc!
Thank you sir!
thank you so much, I red books . I watched videos but I could not understand the tests . You explain tests tests in a very simple and academic way. thanks again. I have red about Atypical cashing disease . `do you have any video about it?
Thank you.
Trilostane is extremely toxic. I took my dog off of it, changed his diet, got his ALP down to normal levels and he had no symptoms besides excessive hunger. If it wasn't for my vet causing more problems to the point I had to put him down he'd probably still be here.
My dog is losing not gaining weight yet she eats like a pig. You see her boney spine. Does the sound like Cushings? She is 11 lbs maltese mix. She did have Low Dose, which determined she had Cushings. Her cortisol crratine test also showed slightly elevated cortisol. Her only symptoms are, thinnimg hair. Extreme eating.
It could be hyperthyroidism, this condition can cause the symptoms that you're describing. The higher cortisol levels can be caused by a chronic stress, as she is coping with this disease.
Thx for this. My Bby has this but is getting tested for treatment purposes. Bad part she needs to hv her eye removed ASAP so I’m freaked out. Started a GoFundMe to get surgery but not there yet and if that goes well then we can move forward treating Cushings. Many sleepless nights rite now, her and her daughter are my only family. Thx again, I learned what I didn’t understand from this. 🐾❤️🐾
My little Jacques also had an eye problem, which we have been treating with antibiotic and other prescribed drops. As I previously wrote, I had a problem with the vendor of trilostane. When he was receiving the proper dose twice daily, I saw significant improvement. He has not been receiving it of about a week now and I see abnormal effects. Hopefully, tomorrow I will start receiving the drug from a more reliable vendor and can pick up his treatments again. I hope your baby is doing well. According to what you wrote, it has been a year. Perhaps you can update us on how she is doing?
@@DokDream thanks but sadly she passed late November last year. Turned out her eye issue stemmed from diabetes that her vet failed to catch in enough time. So now her daughter is starting to have the same symptoms and she’s 14 months younger than mama was. I wish you all the best with your baby.
@@legacythone I had not anticipated that outcome; I share your sorrow. Are you able to monitor your little girl’s blood sugar level?
