Canine Cushings disease

April 20th, 2007

My dog has EVERY symptom of Canine Cushings disease. I have taken her to the vet twice and had a zillion test run, only to have them tell me, the test are inconclusive. This last time the vet basically said he couldn’t find anything that “She is just getting older.” My dog is a female approx. 10 years of age. Lab sheppard mix rescue. She has changed dramitcally in
the last few months. I can’t sit back and just let her die without trying something! She had been so active before January 2007. We would go to the park and hike several miles everyday! Now she can barely make it up the stairs. She can’t sleep through the night due to bladder issues, not to mention urinating in the house which has never happened before. Sorry I’ve probably given you more info than you needed. I’ve had very good luck personally going with a homeopathic type approach to my own health isses. I’ve been considering the homeopathic drops for the tratment of cushings. Is this a safe alternative? What are the bad side effects. Please reply soon. I hate to let anymore time slide by.
