Re: PPID driving IR and fluid(?) behind eyes?
Thanks for the quick response Dr Kellon. So the insulin, glucose, ACTH and leptin tests will be a complete waste of money? If that's the case I will make sure the samples are not sent out on Monday, no point in spending 500$ for useless numbers. What about the full blood panel? Will the sedation have affected that, too? I was so adamant that the blood be pulled before anything but unfortunately it was out of my control. My vet doesn't think the sedation and procedures have any effect.
I may not be able to get him resampled now until next April/May when his vet returns to our area, unless a tech from the small animal clinic will do it. The TRH stim test isn't a realistic possibility for us, I did discuss it with his vet but it was very expensive. -- Kirsten and Shaku (IR) Kitimat, BC, Canada January 2019 Shaku's Case History: https://ecir.groups.io/g/CaseHistory/files/Kirsten%20and%20Shaku Shaku's Photo Album: https://ecir.groups.io/g/CaseHistory/album?id=82559&p=Name,,,20,1,0,0 |
