I am glad she is coming home. My pom had Cushing's diagnosed with ACTH stim tests. Ultrasound looked normal. She had excessive thirst, excessive hunger, black waxy spots all over her body that when peeled off was raw underneath. She lost weigh in spite of her eating a lot, lost a ton of hair on her sides and tail and and had a pot belly. The medicine they put her on for the Cushing's didn't help and put her in to liver disease, diagnosed by a liver biopsy. The specialist stopped the Cushing's treatment and started he on Liver medicine and her liver went back to normal within 6 months. When she was in liver failure, she was so sick but quickly got better. I am praying Daisy will get better soon.
