Eleanor -

I called my vet's office - the results, acth baseline-33.20 and
insulin baseline-58.12 were results from last year-12/19/06. The
correct report is the one with the higher numbers unfortunately.

Can you tell me how bad his cushings is? I guess he is very insulin
resistant judging from these numbers, right? Please let me know if
he is dangerously insulin resistant and also how bad his cushing's
is - when you have time -

Thanks a lot - I really appreciate it very much -

Nancy

Nancy,

I don't "get" it either. Better call the lab. There's IR by both
sets
of results but only one is positive for Cushing's (vs high normal).
