How is diabetes insipidus diagnosed? Is it possible to misdiagnose Cushing's when it is really diabetes insipidus?
I have made the decision to continue using the Cushex Drops-S and am starting Denamarin tablets. I am going to do this for 3 months and then reevaluate to see if we should go on trilostane. ...
Vet just called, ultrasound revealed that all organs are normal. The adrenals were bilateral, and symmetrically enlarged - meaning that she has pituitary based Cushings.
They want to start her...
Thank you, I'll post tomorrow after I have results. Paws crossed!
Ultrasound is tomorrow. Is there anything that I should specifically ask for?
I am praying that they find something that they believe to be operable. I would be so happy :D

Sample 3: 8.8
I've looked at results of others...
This is good to know, I have been limiting water for a few weeks now. I had told my vet and she didn't say anything about it to me. I will stop immediately! Oh my gosh, I feel horrible :(
I live in Rock Hill, SC (just outside of Charlotte, NC) - I paid $206.00 last week.
Just received confirmation of Cushing's for my sweet baby Marley. She is 1/2 beagle, 1/4 boxer and 1/4 lab. She started having symptoms over Thanksgiving of excess thirst and hunger as well as...
