Buttercup (Calcinosis cutis) - Buttercup is now in heaven

Thanks for sharing,
I have read up on pine bark and decided to pass. Researches found back in 2003, that pine bark.extract can inhibit histamines release, an important regulator of allergies. For this reason, pine bark extract may be contraindicated In individuals with weakened immune systems and I may exacerbate the effect of immune suppressant drugs, and it may interfere with immune boosting agents. We all know that lots of cush pups have issues with the immune sys especially
those with CC. Lord knows Butters has been on some of the strongest AB that are available for canines these last few months.

I'm not poopooing on it I just have no examples of how well it works with dogs. Side effects of headaches, nausea/upset stomach. Since Butters has had so so many intense head aches I an avoiding anything that could give her head aches .

I will follow their thread and see how it works for them.

Dawn & having another good day Butters

Plaque is starting to really release it hold on her, so much of it came off today and the skin under it is looking pretty good. She is responding well to the medication after the first week. Personality and skin slowly improving each day.

Dawn and Butters

That's GREAT Dawn!
Daisy doesn't have CC and I hope that she never gets it. It sounds so difficult to manage and even looks more painful.

Dawn:
More improvement that is so wonderful, that makes your whole day when your baby is feeling good. Blessings

So good to hear that her skin is looking better. It's all progress and that is wonderful. :)

Dawn,
I'm so happy to hear that Butters is doing well and I hope it continues. :-). I know they have some different issues, but once the tumor started shrinking, his cushing's symptoms really started to disappear. I'm wondering if the same is happening for Butters. When do you go for the follow-up MRI? I may have missed it in the post, so I apologize if I'm rehashing.

Another great day for Buttercup, when I got home I noticed she only use 1 wee pad in a 10+ hour period, YEAH. Also she reared up on her hind legs to hug me , another big yeah, she had not done that for months and then she went into the play mode and into the downward dog position , butt in the air wagging. More fuzzy fur slowly coming in and increased vision in left eye, depression appears to be gone, energy level slowly increasing. Finally really starting to see improvements with her many issues.

Dawn and Butters

This is fantastic news!! nothing like a butt in the air and a tail wagging. whoo hooo! Go Buttercup!
