Years ago, while Wylie went undiagnosed for hypothyroid and Cushings by his former crappy vet - he was having some weird splitting too, it was so unusual...but later made sense. |
Callie has hypothyroidism. We did testing for cushings two different types and she doesn't have it but I swear she still has several symptoms of it. My vet was great though when she had to stay for testing for the whole day they didn't keep her in the kennel they let her hang out in the office with one of the techs that was doing office work.
