Tess, radiation therapy (Tessie has passed)

[Sammie]

Hi Sammie is my user name, but Tessie is the name of one of my dogs and she is very sick. Last night at 2:00 A.M. I took her out to pee. She did, she was so hot I put another wet towel on her. I feel asleep and woke up to Tes wanting to be sick again. I helped her do that. Turned on the light to get some more water. I saw that her eye's were going back and fourth very fast. At 4:20 A.M. I rushed her to the emergency Vet. Her blood was took thick to draw and run a test, so they got fluid's in her. About 20 or so minuet later, they got blood and every thing was out of whack. The vet said she now has Addison's disease, which is the opposite of chusings disease. We were there tell 8:00 A.M. and we transfered her to my Vet for the day. She is home on the couch for the night. She is doing better, but she has not come back from this yet. I have to Vets now with two different opinions. I have been with my vet for 11 years and trust him. He thinks after two days on Vetoryl that it could not get to Addison's. He did say because of the eye's going back and forth it could be another disease, I will post the name of that disease tomorrow. I forgot the name. He said it was just bad timing for that disease to pop up while we were starting the Vetoryl. My Vet still feels she has chusings.

LADYMOMS6: You are the only post I have seen after two days of searching that had the same thing happen to them. I could not find any thing except for what was on Vetoryl web sit that you have all kindly posted for me. I was at my wits in. I had called my Vet on Saturday at home, But from 5:30 P.M. Saturday to 24 hours later she really went down hill. I will never wait that long again. I have a total of 5 dogs.

My Vet said he might want to start her when she is better on Lysodren Mitotane. Tessie was not on any other medication before she started Vetoryl. She has been given a steroid injection and a injection for nauseous.

I just want to thank you all and am watching over Tessie all night and she will go back to My Vets at 6:30 A.M. California time. I had been up for two days straight, except for that hour last night. Thank god Tess got me up and I got her to the Emergence Vet. Next time there will be know waiting. My vet said if she was still walking around and not lethargy that she might be ok. That is why I waited so long. Thank you all again and I will let you know how it goes.
