I spoke with the student at Purdue again today and she tried to answer my questions. She said that they recommended the Atypical Cushings test; they could offer no opinion as to whether the tumor will or will not return when removed but the cost is now 1 to 3,500k and that they hope the increased dosage to 15/10 will improve Skippy's response. They had no opinion on herbal treatments and no idea of what other conditions might arise if Skippy has Atypical Cushings and Cushing's. Just shoot me.
