It is not too expensive at all to have done, and then you can truly rule in or out thyroid issues.

I do wish and hope you do get to the bottom of this.

Thanks for the advice. I will definitely keep an eye on her, but I can't put her through it again right now. She threw a big old fit about the blood draw which led to her overnight stay. I will be closely watching her diet. If we don't notice a change, I will take her to another vet for a draw and ask that it be sent in. As for the behavior, who knows. She had a terrible first 6 years. I guess I would be a little naughty too in her shoes. When it's just my husband and me at home, she's an angel, but when anyone visits it's awful.
