It's been several months since I've passed along an update on our Chloe. Since I last wrote here Chloe began to go through a series of ups and downs with her appetite. I was constantly switching her food around to keep her eating. She continued to lose weight and started to develop ear infections which we still have been unable to rid her of despite multiple different antibiotics. We had another blood panel done on her last week and scheduled an appointment with a doctor of internal medicine for an ultra sound. Her blood panel showed a cortisol level of .7, IDEXX SDMA at 18, BUN 43, Sodium 130, Potassium, 6.9, Na:K Ratio 19, Chloride 99. Upon meeting with the specialist she came in and said just by looking at her history and her current panel that my Cushings dog now has Addison's! This was something I asked my vet back if that was possible and he assured me it was not possible that she could go from Cushing's to Addison's. This specialist advised me that it is possible and can happen and used to actually happen more frequently before they developed new medications. The medication that she was on, Vetoryl, is not supposed to do this but apparently it did. I guess what happened is that it damaged the part of the adrenal gland that regulates the sodium and potassium levels as well as the part that controls the cortisol production. So, now we've started Chloe on a new medication to treat her for Addison's. After just a couple of days on the pills she is starting to get her energy back and appetite. For reference, she was 60 lbs when she got diagnosed with Cushing's in January of 2017, last week she weighed in at 33 lbs the day she was diagnosed with Addison's. What a roller coaster ride we've been on with her!
