My Milo has Cushing's ~ Milo is now an Angel

[labblab]

I’m so interested to hear about Milo’s laser therapy. It’s a treatment that I don’t know much about, so I’ll surely be interested to know if it ends up helping him. As far as the sleep disruption, the little that I’ve read about collapsed tracheal issues makes it sound as though that problem is noticed more often when a dog is awake and/or excited. Since the grunting happens when Milo is asleep, I wonder if he could be suffering from an issue similar to sleep apnea in humans. I’m embarrassed to admit that I snore myself, and my husband tells me that sometimes I wake myself up with a snore and I know that some people with apnea wake themselves up snorting and gasping. I’ve recently considered being tested for apnea, and that’s why the issue popped into my mind when you described Milo’s behavior. I don’t think it’s common in dogs, but apperntly it can sometimes happen. If it’s even a possibility, your vet may want to examine his nose and throat a bit more carefully the next time he’s checked. Sorry I don’t know more, but it’s just a thought.

Hello again,
so far he has only had two laser treatments and separately every day I heat him with an infrared lamp. I'll let you know if it works. Regarding the grunting, according to the doctor, due to the loss of muscles, perhaps there is partial paralysis of the larynx. Today he tried to see him, but Milo didn't give him much

My Milo is now my little guardian angel.
I did everything in my power and I really wanted to celebrate my 15th birthday on 01/25.
On 04.01 he left us. I'm very sad, I miss you a lot...
I want to say a huge THANK YOU to everyone on this forum. Without your support, all this information would not have been possible!!!!
THANK YOU
