It’s me again. I just came back and re-read what I wrote earlier. And I realize I’m probably trying just as hard to buck up myself as I am you. I’m so grateful we have this place to talk.

Oh my dear Addy, my heart goes out to you and my arms are reaching out to hug you from across the miles. Sometimes the right thing to do is also the hardest thing to do. But you went ahead and did...

Hi again, Colleen. I thought I'd pop back to add a little quote that I just came across this morning. I've been following some twitter postings about a mom in England who's trying to locate her...

Oh Colleen, thanks so much for sharing this new writing that you’ve found. The timing is especially poignant for me, and the little section above feels especially personal. This past week I’ve been...

Omigosh, Judy, for sure I’ll be thinking of you girls on Monday and sending tons of healing wishes! I can only imagine what a stressful day it will be for you, so please know we’ll be sitting right...

Hello and welcome back to you and Bean! As far as additional bloodwork, we’ve been told it is always a good idea to have a basic blood chemistry panel performed alongside monitoring ACTH tests for...

Thanks so much for giving us these results. Unfortunately though, as I wrote before, I do not know of any way in which the LDDS test results generally can be used to make monitoring decisions after...

Hey Addy, still thinking about you and little Zoey, and surely hoping that things have improved.

Continuing to send healing thoughts your way…

Yes, from my reading I saw the disease is common in the Mediterranean. I see it is found in some parts of the U.S., too, but just not commonly in areas where I have lived. If Lucy has had it all...

Hello again, Matina, and thanks so much for this update. I’m sorry to hear that Lucy has gotten leishmaniosis. I didn’t know much about this disease, but now I have read more about it and I surely...

Oh Addy, I’m so sorry I’m so late to see your posts here!!! And words cannot tell you how my heart goes out to you about Koko. Our sweet, sweet boy. I’ll write more later on, but quickly wanted to...

Hello and welcome to you and Beau! We’re really glad you’ve joined us and I look forward to replying in more detail later on. I need to head out on some errands right now, but I didn’t want to...

Judy, your new pix of Sadie Sue are sooooooooo sweet! It’s such a shame that she hurt her leg and can’t be up on the bed right now! Hopefully she’ll heal quickly — I know that would be a gift for...

Oh Iris, I always check the forum first thing when I get up each morning, and I can’t tell you how much it’s already brightened my day to see you here!! And especially to hear that Midas remains by...

Hello again, and thanks for this additional info about Skyler. I’m afraid I don’t have any recommendations re: supplements that might help with the tremors. I just don’t have much knowledge about...

Claire, I’ve been anxiously watching for your update and I’m so relieved to read tonight’s summary! For folks who are more familiar with ACTH results reported in units of ug/dL, here’s the...

It sounds like a very reasonable plan to me, Claire. I know there are still a lot of question marks to figure out, but you’re taking things step-by-step, which is the best thing you can be doing for...

OK, I was able to come back more quickly than I had thought with at least this brief amount of information. Over the years, we have had members who joined us after their dogs suddenly went blind...

Hello again. I'm surely sorry that Megan is doing poorly right now. Thanks so much for the information you've given us already. Out of the things you've written, the thing I'm most worried about...

Welcome to you and Megan — I’m really glad to see that you’ve been able to log in and post! I’ll come back again tomorrow when I’ll have the time to write a more complete reply. But I didn’t want...

I’m so sorry things are going poorly again. But first off, if Remy were mine, I would not start back with the trilostane until you’ve had an ACTH that confirms abnormally elevated cortisol once...

Happy Birthday, dearest little girl!

Forever in all our hearts ❤️❤️❤️

Thanks so much for this information! The abnormal lab results that you’ve posted contain some values that are indeed consistent with Cushing’s, such as elevated liver markers and some of Skyler’s...

Hello and welcome to you and Skyler! We’re surely sorry for the issues you’re dealing with right now, but hope we’ll be able to help. First of all, you’ll be helping *us* if you can give us more...

Oh my goodness. Claire, I'm so sorry to read this news. I agree, it's unbelievable that you would have three dogs diagnosed with this form of cancer. And yes, it certainly further complicates an...
