Marianne. THANK YOU. Please post anything I can print and take to my vet in the morning. I plan to go and take the info right to the new Vet. Very concerned for my dog. Our vet we trusted for 6 years just betrayed us beyond comprehension with our staffy that we just had to put down so before we allowed this new Vet we interviewed her to make sure she could take care of our dogs properly. If she doesn't know that it's dangerous to have her on this then why say continue but at a lower dose. They didn't do basic blood work but they still have her vial so I will request they run it ASAP in the morning. At this point we have zero trust with Vets due to stuff with our old Vet who we thought was the best but we were sadly mistaken. Now this Vet seemed good and consults with other vets if she needs more info but I agree why put her on this med again at a lower dose if these are her results. I'm very apprehensive. I can't lose Athena...we just lost our staffy and right now I'm beside myself.
Anything you have please let me know. I'm very very worried about Athena. She's not acting sick except drinking a lot, pee'ing and her weight is back on a bit more. She's not acting like all the other symptoms listed for Addisons or Cushing's other than those two except her hind legs bother her which is why she's on tramadol.
I want to trust this new Vet badly but we are very gun shy right now....why wouldn't she know this info that you know. That must be a red flag
Thanks for anything you can give me tonight. We will go there tomorrow armed with this info.
Now can you cold turkey stop Vetroyl or do we have to ween her off it if we choose to take her off the med.
Our lab is young. Barely 5. This is very concerning to us both.
Thanks for helping us..... Thanks very very much
