Re: Confused about subtlety of food changes with Vetoryl?
Hi from me too. I was one with a picky eater. It was a real bugger to get her to eat a meal all at one time. I ended up having to use toppers to get her to eat enough to be considered a meal to go with the trilostane. She did have high cortisol but not a big appetite. She was a grazer, so would just munch off and on at her bowl till it was done. Not easy to deal with when meds are involved.
I made up for this by doing frequent testing for cortisol levels. Every couple weeks to start with just so I would know what was going on and how she was responding and I used other things like, was she lethargic, did she show the same levels of activity and engagement. No voimiting or diarrhea.
An ACTH would have a pre and a post level so you could just post like this:
ACTH
pre 10.
post 35
LDDS
base
4 hr
8 hr
And any high or low levels on cbc (don't post the normal levels)
that is what I use to do and I'd update the test results each time I got them back. I always got a copy and kept my own file to refer back to.
Also for pdf convert to jpg, you can also do that online. I'd upload to a pdf converter, have the website convert to jpg and then save that to my computer and load it in an album here on the forum. But for the most part I just typed in cushing results and cbc and urinalysis results by hand.
