Our Boo was diagnosed with Cushings and on 1ml of Trilostane 2x. The first 2 months saw a new younger dog, but in the past 2 weeks things have gone bad.

she lost her appetite for a couple days, switched her to ID vet food and this seemed to help, then she seemed better. This was 2 weeks ago.

she seemed to bounce back until yesterday, unable to hold her urine, diarrahea. Then this morning drank allot of water, hand fed her a small amount of ID food, and she vomited everything. She is panting at times and shaking.

We decided to back off her Trilostane today, vet told us she needed to take with medicine. She has had 5 blood tests so far with her levels just abit over the high acceptable limit.

Any suggestions, and help with what we can expect to hit next?
Thanks for your time, D Best

Has an ACTH stim test been done? It sounds to me that maybe Boo's cortisol has dropped too low. Do you have any prednisone on hand?
