Re: Young Diagnosis
Hi and welcome to you and Bentley!
That is a bit young but not the youngest I have heard of. In fact, one of our Admins had a cush baby, Lulu, who was diagnosed at the age of 3 and I have heard of others that young. You can find Lulu's story here - https://www.k9cushings.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1638
Meanwhile it would help us a lot if you could give us details, something we dearly love around here. First tell us what prompted the cushing's testing in the first place...were you seeing things - if so what? Did something show up on other tests...if so what?
What tests were done to diagnose the Cushing's? Would you mind posting the actual results from any LDDS, ACTH, abdominal ultrasound, and/or wellness check that shows things like BUN, CHOL, ALP and so on? Those results will help us a great deal in offering more meaningful feedback.
I'm' sure others will be along soon to chat with you as well. I'm' glad you found us and look forward to seeing those test results and additional info on your sweet baby.
Hugs,
Leslie
