This test does *not* tell you if Cushings is present, it tells you whether you need to proceed, or not, with the more specific and expensive Cushings tests (ie, the ACTH or LDDS etc).
Are there *any* other random symptoms...?
Here is a site on Cushings: Cushings (Hyperadrenocorticism) | | Long Beach Animal Hospital |
I just spoke with the vet and she said that her tests don't indicate that she might have Cushings. They checked her sugar levels and it's also normal.
She thinks that perhaps maya wasn't drinking too much before and now she actually drinks normally. There are no other symptoms that I can see.
Dead end lol
