    Hi, how are things going with Sadie? Are the sores clearing up at all?

    Hi,

    I'm copying a post you made on Skippy's thread to your baby's original thread.

    My Boston Terrier had a large pituitary tumor removed in November 2015. She also had Calcinosis Cutis, which took a lot of wound care. She was placed on Trilostane, and has been taking it since. It took a good 3 months before her skin healed. She has been doing well. Her hair now is falling out in droves! I do not know if it is from the Trilostane or from the Cushings returning, but we don't really want to get her retested, as she becomes so anxious that it likely drives her Cortisol levels higher. She is 11, and doubt we will do anything else. For now she is eating and playing and doing okay.
