Re: Ruby
Hi:
Welcome to the group. Unfortunately these natural methods and Cushex drops do not work on Cushings. If they did everyone on here would be using them, and there would be no need to have this forum. The only method currently working to control cortisol production is Trilostane, or lysodren. There are many people who have come on here and decided to use Cushex etc. All you are doing is wasting your money on something that will not help your dog. I am sorry to sound so callous but that is the plain and simple truth. I hope you reconsider your choice for the sake of your dog. No one on here really wants to put their dogs on these drugs, but that is the only method available that will control the cortisol. I didn't want to do it either, but if I hadn't I think my dog would not be here. The group is to advise you and help you through this. The people on here have more experience with this disease than the vets do. We are also here to support you, even though we may not agree with your choice of treatment. That is an individual choice, we are only sharing our knowledge to help you. Blessings
