So we finally got Sammi's results back...
Her last DOCP 10/13/17
Her last dose of Prednisone was on 11/12/17
She had the stim test on 11/16/17
Pre 4.1
Post 5.4
So her body is definitely producing cortisol again.
She also put some much needed weight back on. Last month she was under 8 lbs. and her weight on Thurs 11/16/17 was just over 9 lbs.!!!
So the vet said nothing about putting her back on a lower dose of Trilostane and she doesn't have to get any more steroid injections or take Prednisone. Is it possible that Sammi's cortisol levels may remain "normal" and she won't have to take Trilostane, or do we just have to wait and see and monitor her along with doing the stim test again?
She's really doing well with the exception of the panting and rapid breathing at night and more toward the evenings. The vet said he didn't know what the nightly panting and rapid breathing was from but did mention, possibly high blood pressure or pulmonary hypertension and we'd have to see the cardiologist to determine that.
He said if she doesn't seem to be in distress we can just monitor her for now.
What are your thoughts on her most recent pre and post test?
