I wouldn't test either Trish as he's not showing any cushing symtoms, I did wonder about the nodule disappearing but as Sharlene said it can happen.
I'm off for an early night I,ve had the week from hell at work and I'm mentally exhausted hope to catch you over the weekend :p
Re: Flynn 11 y/o Foxie Cross - Right adrenalectomy, 3rd Dec 2012 for Pheochromocytoma
I don't know why he said that Sharlene, wonder if he thinks if there are no or minimal symptoms would you treat? Maybe if your not going to treat, why test? He never mentioned safety of testing when we spoke either.
I will google that about disappearing lesions.... disappearing is good as far as I am concerned!!
Tracy, love the glammy Gran... you must be Awesome Aunty! I don't really have any plans today. Bit yuck to do much outside, so the gardening can wait this weekend! Just the usual really, need to do some groceries at some stage but that's about it... no lunches or dinner out planned at the moment but that can change but after our dramas this week I am keen to make it a "Flynn" weekend and take him out and about to some of his favourite places... although he is snoozing on the couch right now looking just about exactly like this http://www.k9cushings.com/forum/albu...pictureid=6564 it is safe to say the new throw is now totally in his possession!

I do love that pic of Flynn it makes me just want to crawl in beside him for a cuddle doubt he would let me or you for that matter lol
I'm called Crazy Aunt Rachel and her brother have always called me that I wonder why lol I like the idea of a Flynn weekend, I miss those weekend just being with them.
Now I have really going to bed !

Crazy Aunt lol... I like that... shows your personality!! I don't like hearing how stressful your work has been lately, what with new management, floods, bung vodka, job description concerns... hope it settles down next week and well if doesn't it is only a 4-day week! Glad to hear your sister is going with you on your trip too!! xxxx

Yeah I almost quit today came home for lunch and almost didn't go back I had to call my mum to calm me down. I'm looking for a new job as this one is getting me down. I've lost it the last few days and conducted myself in a manner that I am not proud off ...... And I wonder why they call me crazy aunt. Anyway I'll be fine after a good sleep I hope :D
Re: Flynn 11 y/o Foxie Cross - Right adrenalectomy, 3rd Dec 2012 for Pheochromocytoma
Awwww Tracy, that sucks. Good old Mum being there to talk it through. Try to hang in till something else comes in, unless you have won Lotto and not told us about it!! You got this job fairly easily once you started looking, so hopefully a better one comes up real soon!
Re: Flynn 11 y/o Foxie Cross - Right adrenalectomy, 3rd Dec 2012 for Pheochromocytoma
Nighty night Tracy! Sleep well and get some rest. Mason needs some aunty to throw up on again soon I bet! :)
Probably right Trish, just why test if nothing to treat. I just found the wording interesting.
The only difference I see is that Molly does have high cortisol, but tests negative repeatedly on the LDDS and has no symptoms. Making it hard to rationalize treating, especially if her nodule is benign too. Always something to stay on top of with these characters of ours. LOL
Okay, bath is calling my name!
hugs

Oh gosh I missed your last post there Tracy.
They say it is better to find a new job while you are employed at the old one, so I hope you can find something that is a better fit for you.
Good job mom!!
Get some rest, don't let this stuff get you down.

Nice, light some candles and go heavy on the bubble bath!!
Do you mean this bit?
I am not a believer in a hands-off approach to
Cushing's but I am cautious about subjecting a dog to too many tests in the early phases of such a syndrome.
