  1. Re: Mini Dachshund just diagnosed with Cushings.

    Hi everyone. I haven't posted for a while. But I go on occasionally and read what's going on. Sophie had her last stim last month. She is still within the controlled range. She is still on 25 of...
  2. Re: Mini Dachshund just diagnosed with Cushings.

    Thanks for your response Addy. No, there are no new symptoms, thank god. The only thing is the food obsession which she always had to some degree.
    I thought that was a big drop also. So we will do...

    Re: Is she too old?

    Well said Valerie!
  7. Re: Mini Dachshund just diagnosed with Cushings.

    I agree with you Lori. I'm going to wait a month and then do another Stim. I always feel better when I get all of the forums feedback.
    Thanks everyone.
  8. Re: Mini Dachshund just diagnosed with Cushings.

    I forgot to mention, that I kinda picked this new IMS brain by asking a lot of the same questions to see if they are all on the same page.
    I told him about her making snorting sounds mostly when...
  9. Re: Mini Dachshund just diagnosed with Cushings.

    Hi all, hope everyone had a nice holiday. Haven't posted for a while, but every nite I read all the new posts. Sophie has been doing well since we went up to 25 of trilo 2x a day about 3 weeks ago....
  10. Re: Mini Dachshund just diagnosed with Cushings.

    Thanks for your response Addy. I'll let you know what the IMS says 2 Moro.
  11. Re: Mini Dachshund just diagnosed with Cushings.

    That's what I'm thinking. Made an appt to see IMS Wed. But she's a 19 lb dog on 40mg a day. Isn't that high already.
    Could it be this drug is not working for her?
  12. Re: Mini Dachshund just diagnosed with Cushings.

    Hi everyone . I'm not sure what to do about Sophie. Her lasts Stim was February 17. On Trilo 20mg 2x a day. Pre was 4.8, post was 11. IMS said he likes it under 10. But was comfortable with that...
  13. Re: 10 year old female beagle just diagnosed with Cushings

    Hi Patti. I looked up that drug Adequan, and it says it's used for arthritis. I don't understand how that helps the trachea?
  14. Re: Bichon Cushings plus other?

    Hi. I'm a pretty new member with a 10 year dachshund just diagnosed 3 months ago. And I noticed the last couple of weeks she doesn't jump on the couches anymore. She runs and walks well. Why do you...
  15. Re: 10 year old female beagle just diagnosed with Cushings

    Hi Patti. It's funny you are talking about the snorting , because Sophie was diagnosed in December. But I noticed she was snorting and making pig sounds especially when smelling for food droppings on...

    Re: Tipper - adrenal tumor/breathing issues

    Hi. My IMS said to come back in 3 to 4 weeks after dose changing. So I have going closer to 4 weeks if there isn't any problems. Those stim tests cost so much. Over here in NY they charge me $356...

  21. Re: Mini Dachshund just diagnosed with Cushings.

    Sharlene, I was just thinking. Maybe I should just try liver supplements. My doctor told me to try Red yeast rice to bring down my cholesterol and it worked. Which one should I try and where do I buy...
  22. Re: Mini Dachshund just diagnosed with Cushings.

    Thanks Sonja, you are so sweet. I hope you are ok. I read in your posts how much you miss your Apollo.
  23. Re: Mini Dachshund just diagnosed with Cushings.

    Sharlene, I asked him about liver supplements and he said they don't do anything, keeping the cortisol level down is the best treatment.
  24. Re: Mini Dachshund just diagnosed with Cushings.

    Hi everyone. Wanted to get your feedback on Sophie's Stim test this month after going up to 20mg 2x a day last month. IMS just called.
    Pre 4. 8. Post 11.2. So it didn't go down that much, he says...
