Re: Syd
Hi and welcome to you and Syd!
It is not uncommon to have a period of finding that sweet spot with Vetoryl. Dogs do well on a certain dose for a while then need an increase or decrease...so this is not something to worry over. It is common. So take a deep breath and try to relax about this part. And BOY! do I know how hard it can be to relax so let's just call this a kettle talking to a pot.
It would help us a great deal if you could get copies of the actual test result for Syd, both those when being diagnosed (ACTH, LDDS, ultrasound, wellness check showing things like BUN, CHOL, etc) and the monitoring ACTHs since starting treatment. This info will help us provided the most meaningful feedback we can.
Can you tell us more about Syd. Does he have any other health issues? Is he on any other meds, supplements, herbs? What prompted the testing for Cushing's in the first place? Were you seeing changed in Syd? If so what were they? The more you can tell us the better. We LOVE details!
I'm glad you found us and know others will be along soon to chat with you.
Hugs,
Leslie
