Donating YT 30K Club Member | Maya's biopsy results are in The vet just called. Maya has severe inflammatory liver disease and chirrosis of her liver. The vet said the Cushing's medicine was making it worse and she cannot be on it. I stopped it 11 days ago since I suspected it was making her sicker than the Cushings. Maya has to go on prednisone (yuck!) fot 3 days and go to the vet for a recheck Monday and discuss some meds she needs to go on. I asked what her prognosis was and she said if we can reverse the inflammation the prognosis is good. If we can't or we do nothing she will die from liver failure. The other problem is the Cushings cannot be treated anymore and that will effet her heart and lungs as well as other problems. SO please keep her in your prayers. Thanks

| I'm so sorry to hear this...I'll be praying for her...Did the vet suggest putting her on milk thistle? This will help her liver.

Donating YT 30K Club Member | Thanks all! I will ask when I go Monday. I think Cali should go on it too as she has mild MVD.

| Good idea! It would be beneficial to her too so that she doesn't develop symptoms later in life...

| Keeping her in my prayers and hoping for the best. Since she can no longer take the cushings meds maybe you should consult a holistic vet. They have supplements that help the adrenal glands
