Re: 10 year old maltipoo dx with Cushing?
I agree that a cushings specific test would be needed to verify prior to starting any kind of medication.
Was any sort of wellness test done? if so can you post the abnormal results (high/low and range) That helps us to give you better feedback.
How old is your dog? I ask because you have to sometimes make quality of life decisions too. As in an older dog, with known arthritis conditions, might need their cortisol to be a bit higher than say a dog with no known arthritis problems. So if cushings is involved, it is a question of whether to treat at all, or whether to treat but with a smaller dose for example. (i'm dealing with similiar issues with my own dog and arthritis pain.)
