Re: Tipper - adrenal tumor/breathing issues
Hi Patti, well that makes perfect sense then, with the opening of the blood vessels, but see if she continues to breath easier on it, because you never know, what thing is leading to another thing, when it comes to these oh so delicate systems. They are strong, yet, they seem delicate to me when something goes wrong in one.
Molly is exhausted tonight. We had a full house today, she managed to try to be in the kitchen every second she could, which wasn't easy, since she isn't allowed in the kitchen if someone is using a knife, she has to sit outside the cooking area and "stay" which she doesn't like. A couple times she sneaked in and I would block her with my foot, which after an hour, of repeatedly being blocked, she decided to attack. Well, as funny as it was seeing this little dog try to put her whole mouth around my shoe, that was just a no go, since we are being serious about this. (this is hubby's rule and he worries that what if someone dropped a knife and she was right under foot) Makes sense to me. So, had to put a stop to that little antic.
She went down the stairs the other day and did come up on her own. She wasn't happy and barked for a long time, but I couldn't go down and walk her up as I was on a conference call for work. She hasn't gone down since but will stand at the top of the stairs and watch if I am down there doing something to see if I am coming right back up or not. We'll get there. :) We can be stubborn too. LOL
Have a safe trip.
hugs,
Sharlene and Molly Muffin

Re: Tipper - adrenal tumor/breathing issues
Hi Everyone:
I am one happy chick today. My baby is ok. The tumor is still the same size and has not grown at all. I cried all the way home I am so relieved. I have prayed on this for weeks now, and God gave Tipper a pass. I am ever so thankful. In the waiting room I sat with my rosary praying for Tipper and Woody. Next to me on each side was a dog with Cushings if you can believe it!!! This disease is ridiculous. I gave them the website address here and offered them some support. I hope they join us and get some much needed help. On the way there someone wrecked and we went bumper to bumper for 15 miles. I had to call and tell the hospital what happened, thank God for cell phones. It just so happened my Dr. was stuck in it too so that worked out for us. We did not have to wait they took her right away. THANK YOU GOD FOR ANSWERING MY PRAYERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!! This dog means so mush to me that I could hardly eat the last couple days thinking of this appointment. Tomorrow she goes for her ACTH and Blood work so I pray it turns out good also. The end of November she see the eye Dr. and the Cardiologist. So we have pretty much covered our bases before winter comes so we can limit our travel. She will have to have periodic US's to check the tumor after a couple months. She did scare me on the way home though, she was doing that real rapid breathing for quite a while. She is resting now after her walk and is not doing it any more. I got a disc burned of each US image she has had and will give them to my vet to look at, but want them back. The rest of the day is going to be low key because I did not sleep well and I am tired after that drive. I am equally as pleased with the findings on Woody. Yes this is one of those terrific days! Blessings

Re: Tipper - adrenal tumor/breathing issues
Thank you everyone who prayed for my girl. She is so tired out she is napping. We are to get rain until Friday and then on the weekend also. Glad I did my stuff outside, but sorry the dogs will not be able to walk. Going to the ACTH tomorrow so I am going to get some rest, this wears me out, but I will gladly do it for my baby. Blessings
