"Now let me run Lily by you. In May Lily had both adrenal glands & part of
her pancreas out. She was on Florinef half a tab until mid Sept. when she
had lab work that was ok. Then we cut her dose in half for a month and took=
her off it 3 weeks ago. When she had lab work in Sept. she weighed 1.5 lbs.=
When I took her in a week and a half ago she weighed 1.4 lbs and today she
weighed 1.1 lbs. Her blood sugar was 112 which is good. Her electrolytes
were normal except for the chloride which was high. Obviously there is a
problem if she is losing weight. I really thought she had insulnoma, but he=
r
sugar was ok. They are going to fax her lab work to my vet and I hope I'll
hear from her tonight. I'm tempted to put her back on a small dose of
Florinef. =
