Hi guys..sorry for long delay, it's been a real rough week.

I don't know what is wrong with Sunny. I am exhausted. There are no leads.

Read all of my prior posts, and add up the symptoms he has been having since February.

Now add in that he is developing Chronic Fevers that appear to come and go.

And, in the past few days, I noticed a "pebble" sized lump on his body that swelled up to the size of a BASEBALL which prompted me to take him to the Vet ASAP.

The vet extracted fluid from the giant knot but was completly puzzled at what it was, a strange white, watery liquid. Which was sent to the laboratory for testing.

After looking at the results from the ATCH test from April 2013, he DOES have Cushing Disease, but there is something more, much much worse.

I am considering an Abdominal Ultrasound for this coming week, and an appointment with Vet Specialists.

@kjc - No it has not. What do you suspect?
