I am praying Wylie doesn't have Cushing's. I think I said in my PM that Maya had the adrenal kind, she had the one where you can't operate so it would have been the Pituitary kind. I was also told that because it usually affects older dogs that they give a 2 year prognosis. Maya lived almost 3 years from her first symptoms and most of that time was without meds due to other complications, so in a young dog on meds I would think there could be a longer prognosis. I know when Maya had the 8 hour test it took 2 days to get the results.
