Oh I forgot to mention that they did a SDMA test on her. Which is a kidney test, the newer one and can determine kidney deterioration now when it is at 20 - 40% even, it use to be that kidney failure didn't show up till 60% of kidney had failed, so this is good to have a test that can show it sooner. Anyway, Molly's test came back in the normal range, which is another huge relief for us.
:)
So glad that SDMA results were good! I will definitely add this to my list of tests for Abbie at the end of the month.
Yay !!!!!!!!
Well that is great news for our little miss.
What a journey indeed, Sharlene and you are doing an extraordinary job!
Good news is so nice to hear! I'm happy for you and Molly!
Ya:p for Molly and you
Sonja,Apollo,Karma and Ariel
I got molly's results back from the last ACTH, and even though we went up 2mg, and it's been 3 weeks since the last test there has been virtually no real change in her numbers.
Since my works is absolutely crazy and I can't get off to go do tests till at least January, we are going to stick with this dosage until I am able to start back in with adjusting dose. This was discussed with her current internist. We dont' want to make any changes during a time when I can't be doing tests regularly. So, we'll resume early next year.
Her adrenal glands sure are stubborn!

Try pilling Rosie!:eek::eek::eek: Now that's STUBBORN!!! Wiry little minx!!!:o
Yes Sharlene, I totally agree. I wouldn't want to be increasing any dosages when I wouldn't be available to monitor closely and test either. ;) No point in taking any chances. Even though you haven't seen the numbers you'd like to see, Molly remain stable. ;)
