I've just posted on another thread about this. My vet suspects my oldest yorkie, Zack has got Cushings but he wants to attempt to treat his skin problem first and then I've got to see him again next week to see if the skin has improved before we move on with further tests. I've been reading about Cushing's and it mentions weight gain a lot - mine's lost weight but he's eating well. Is this normal? It's very fightening thinking my boy might have this but also I'm reading some positive things about treatments.
My Zack is nearly 15 years old. It's worrying as he's already an elderly dog but I want to try and give him as much quality of life that I can. |
