Maisie - Can Trilostane cause tumors to grow?

[jani]

Hello,

My Maisie was diagnosed with Cushing's disease in the fall of 2009 following a tooth being pulled.....surgery. The diagnosis was directly after the surgery and we always felt it was somehow linked. My baby passed away 3 weeks ago. I am so devastated. Words cannot describe the loss and my sadness.
I read that your dog Alivia was diagnosed after two teeth being pulled. I wonder if the stress of the surgery brought on the Cushing's. Maisie was on Trilostane. Whether the tumor grew on her pituitary from a micro adenoma to a macro adenoma or else a new brain tumor grew they could not tell me. She was so weak from the disease from having it almost 2 years I opted out of an MRI. The doctors said it would have told them what they already knew anyway.
Where did you hear that Trilostane can make tumors grow faster? Could you please let me know your resource for that information?

I am so sorry for your Avilia.

take care,
jani
