Re: Who took their dog to a specialist? Advice?
So did you constantly take her in for bloodwork to manage the cushings? How were you keeping her on irregular doses? and what made her sugar go so low?
Daisy has been on 5mg/day vetoryl for a few months, and the last blood work showed that her pre cortisol level was pretty low, 0.9, so my vet said to take her off the vetoryl for now, which is why i'm taking her to the specialist.
I'm sure they will push for more ultrasounds and labs bc that's how they make the money, but I'm not doing another ultrasound. When she had it done in July I paid $400 just for the u/s and it didn't show anything significant other than fatty looking liver. I'm sure nothing has changed since then, since she was at her sickest at that time in July.
