Occasionally, a dog might have a diagnosis of iatrogenic Cushing's disease. This is not an adrenal disorder, but rather it is caused by the administration of steroids (given to treat other diseases) to a dog. Long-term administration of steroids can cause a dog to exhibit all the classic signs of Cushing's disease. In this case, the excessive steroids are not being produced in the body, they are being provided as a form of medication to your pet. |
Okay.... *what* are you asking here? I just covered this
very thing above - Iatrogenic Cushings - and said exactly what it was. You're basically repeating what I posted above....?
