My Ashlee had Cushing's. She lived for several years after diagnosis with no treatment. Many times the treatment is worse than the disease IMO. She had severs arthritis and a very bad spine so the cortisol actully haelped to keep her from having pain. The worst part was she drank huge quantities of water and peed constantly. We had our carpet ripped out and I just kept a mop and bucket and cleaned up all the time. She lived to a few months past her 16th birthday when she caught some type of virus which killed her |
