Hi everyone,

I haven't been on YT for a while…

I was in car accident 3years ago, and I was injured in multiple places.
worst of all, I got meniere's disease. I was under a lot of stress from not only losing hearing, but also having constant noise in my ear.
I think that's when cheeky started feeling stressed about me being sick. She started showing symptoms of cushing's around september of last year. it started with increased appetite, and drinking, followed by losing hair, panting, snoring, muscle weakness… I searched online and found the some homeopathic remedies which includes cushex, flax SDG lignans, melatonin, turmeric, cur cumin, sea kelp, and organic immune support accompanied by law diet. After a month, her symptoms improved such as no more snoring, panting, excessive drinking, and her muscle mass got better. I still wanted to take her to hospital to run some tests for cushing's. I took her to endocrinologist in animal medical center, and although he was very nice and knowledgeable, he completely dismissed her improvement with homeopathic treatments. He said that any improvement I thought she had was just placebo! He laughed and said "if natural remedies work, everyone would be using them." We decided to do blood work, urine culture, ultrasound, and LDDS. Her blood work and urine test showed high protein in her urine, and subnormal thyroid level. other than that everything else was normal. LDDS test came in today and her numbers are pre:18.9, 4hr:1.3, 8hr:2.9. with both LDDS & ultra sounds(showing enlarged liver and adrenal glen) he concluded that she has pituitary dependent cushings. Now, the doctor wants to try either lysodren or trilostane with her. From what I read they are both very toxic and have many side effects… If I had to give her medication, I though she can start with anipryl which seems much safer than the other two. Is there anyone who has tried anipryl with baby? any suggestions or advices would be much appreciated… I'm taking her to my acupuncturist next week to help her with her stress level… At this point, I'm willing to try anything as long as there's no crazy side effects. I feel so guilty for making her sick…
thank you for reading my post
