Re: My Zoe, Lhasa Apso, diagnosed with Cushing's
Hi Addy-
Do you know you just made yourself a nice little list you can take with you so you remember each item?:D
When is the appt? Do you hope to come away with most of your questions answered? Does Zoe not have a Cushings' diagnosis?...that can't be....look at the thread title.:confused:
How did you come upon Dr. Peterson?
How many kids? What "kind?" Grandkids?? :confused::confused:
Have a wonderful weekend.....if we don't hear back from you.
Love,
Susan
Re: My Zoe, Lhasa Apso, diagnosed with Cushing's
Hi Susan,
It is a telephone consultation with Dr. Peterson to go over things that are bothering me before I go back to Zoe's IMS to start treatment. He is in New York. I just got done sending all her Cushing tests to them. Zoe does have a Cushings diagnosis, it is just she has not been a clear cut case. She never read the manual:p:p
Hey, Carrol was on K9 Diabetes April 22nd. I just checked. I am worried about her too.:(
Kids include daughter and her two daughters. Koko and Hubby are out numbered:D:D:D:D:D
The "second one" has put up with me for 21 years. I don't know how:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes: And believe it or not our anniversary is the same day as Marie's:cool::cool::cool:
OMG THE SUN IS OUT. AT LEAST I THINK IT IS THE SUN. I THINK I REMEMBER HOW IT LOOKS!!!!!!!!!!! HURRAH THE SUN!!!!!!!
Love,
Addy
Re: My Zoe, Lhasa Apso, diagnosed with Cushing's
Hey There,
Wow--who would have thought Sept. 21st would be so popular--and we even got married on a Sunday.
Daughters are sooo much fun and granddaughters--ooooh I wish I had some. My daughter said no kids, but then she is only 26 so I might have a chance once she finds Mr Right and he wants them.:D:D
I am glad you have spoken to Mother Nature and have come up with a plan to get those seeds planted. Yeah!!! For the SUN!!! I just took some of the seedlings and move them around--thinned out. I hope they make it!!! :p
I am going to call the breeder in a bit so will let you know what's up.:)
Re: My Zoe, Lhasa Apso, diagnosed with Cushing's
Hi, Addy!
Glad you will have the consultation with Dr. Peterson. It should be helpful to have someone review everything with a fresh eye. Is he also going to write a report for you? I was supposed to do a consultation with him last week, but the pancreatitis episode put it on hold. Now, I will be anxious to hear how yours goes. It sounds like your Zoe is a lot like Alivia! Ali did not read the manual, either! ;) She has never reacted typically to things. Her regular vet even mentioned that again last week. She's also had reactions to some medications. I think that combination makes treatment more difficult and also a lot scarier.
I hope the consultation helps you to figure out the best way to proceed! GOOD LUCK!!!!
Re: My Zoe, Lhasa Apso, diagnosed with Cushing's
Hi Mary Beth,
I am so happy Alivia is improving every day. I can't begin to tell you how great it is to hear.
Thanks for stopping by. I am excited about the consultation. I just hope my expectations are not too high. Yes, Carol , I believe, said he would write a report to me or Zoe's vet. I said I wanted everything to go through me. He is still in Spain lecturing but will be back next week.
I sent her the test results and recheck notes from the last year with the IMS. There had been 4 appointments, two included lots of tests. I had everything organized, including a sheet with current meds, symptoms, known drug side effects. She thanked me for "being so thorough" and I thought "OH NO" I hear that all the time from vets and have a complex about it now. They worry sometimes about talking to me because I am thorough and detailed.:rolleyes::rolleyes:
Hubby thinks I take it a bit too far. I really tried to cut back this time and did not include a lot of info:D:D:D:D
Yikes!!!!!! I'm getting paranoid!!!:eek::eek::rolleyes: I can't help it. I have questions!!!!!;););)
I'll let you know how it goes so you will be prepared when it is your turn!!!!
Love,
Addy
Re: My Zoe, Lhasa Apso, diagnosed with Cushing's
Hi Addy-
Isn't New York a fur piece from Milwaukee? No satisfactory resources in Milwaukee?
As you can tell, me no sleeping. Exhausted but no sleeping.
Puppy school went great! I'll fill you in more tomorrow. The have a site, in case you're interested. www.k10training.com . Trainer's name is Nancy. Seems to be very nice and seems to get results.
On the way there, Bailey threw up all over me. I'm beginning to get used to this now.
Nappy time. What kind of furniture did you say? I couldn't hear you!!;);)
Fess up once you get the news!!
Love,
Susan:)
Re: My Zoe, Lhasa Apso, diagnosed with Cushing's
Well, Susan thank goodness Bob didn't throw up all over you, that it was Bailey, 'cause it would have been a bigger mess:p:p:p
Yes, NY is far from WI but long distance romances some times work so long distance vet consults COULD;);););)
Hey Marie, pictures of Ella this weekend!!!!!! WE HOPE:D
Hope all of you have a great weekend!!!!!!! Love you all!!!!!!!!
Hugs,
Addy
Re: My Zoe, Lhasa Apso, diagnosed with Cushing's
Hey Addy,
There are somethings that I have to be very thorough with. I have learned from all this stuff you have to be with vets now or they will walk all over you. Being informed is a good thing!!!:D
You are so right that it wasn't Bob throwing up on Susan. Even though any throw up is yukey. So glad training went well.
If I had pictures they would be up, I cannot even get the breeder to call me back so I know if we are taking days off work to go get her next week--I am going nutso--impatient:eek::eek: This is where I need the drugs to settle down---haha!! I will try again today block my number and hope for the best. :o
Have a wonderful sunny weekend!!!!
