There's no set place for the hair loss to begin/occur nor do they
always have multiple symptoms. Penny had her left and 3/4's of her
right adrenal out. Prior to this she had hair loss on her rump but
no swollen vulva whatsoever. Spaz had his left taken out after his
hair loss started on his shoulders and progressed down his back. He
was somewhat itchy. Beasley started with hair loss on the tops of his
feet and eventually progressed to general thinning down his back.
Beasley was put on Lupron. None exhibited behavior changes of any
kind.

But, none of them went from a full coat of hair to major hair loss in
a short period of time.

a week and she shows no sign of vulva swelling nor aggressive

she is unable to reach some of the areas in which she is losing hair.
I have had many adrenal babies and there is normally hair loss at the
base of the tail moving up the back and down the tail but as you can
see the loss is at the neck and down to the end of her back.
