Re: Macroadenomas
I will be adding Pansy's story to this thread - it's very long as, in hindsight, I believe she exhibited her first symptoms a full two years before she left us last week. I won't beat myself up because I did the very best I could for her, but I do wonder whether she might have been treatable had she been diagnosed earlier. I hope that by putting down the details of her symptoms and progression, some other dog might be saved.
