Re: Need some Input
There is no way in you know where that I would give that baby Trilostane or any other drug for Cushing's. NONE. I would absolutely forget about Cushing's and start pushing to find out all I could about what could be done for the liver. If there truly is nothing, then love her and dote on her as long as you can but please do not treat Cushing's. Both drugs used to treat Cushing's are very powerful and it is an unspoken rule that you not give either of them to a sick dog...and your baby is sick. So if she were mine, I would just forget about Cushing's and ignore any vet who said to treat Cushing's. Focus on the liver only and do everything you can to help that organ. One thing I would do is find a surgeon and talk to them about surgery for her - not an IMS. The surgeon is the one who will know the most about whether surgery is an option or not. Even if the IMS or GP vet has performed surgeries on livers before...the one who specialized in surgery is the one you want to talk to. That's my 2 cents worth.
Know we are with you all the way no matter what!
