I am madly in love with this tiny girl, her little personality is finally coming through and she is just a nut! She loves to tease and play! She has a very quiet little bark and at times she will come and bark right at me! Thanks so much for all the help and yes, I'll keep all of you posted on her.. |
That is just wonderful to hear her little personality is blossoming with your TLC
. No surprise there!
So glad to hear she ate, good news. But not hungry again this morning, darn. What if you sprinkled some Parmesan cheese on her food, can you try that? Of course, you also don't want to mask (too much) if her cortisol is too low. Is her next ACTH Stim not for awhile yet? I'm wondering if, after the Mitotane loading dose, she is now needing a decrease in her maintenance dose..even less than she is getting now? So hard to say...
Or, did vet go straight to maintenance dose w/ her and skip loading dose?
