thyroid

Hi! I have an English bulldog, Rocky. He has lost all of his hair on both flank sides. He is just bare skin. I've had him to the vet many times. His skin is in great condition;no itchy,red areas. No signs of yeast or fungal infections. Just had his thyroid tested;normal results. The vet Doctor...

Our vet quoted 2100 bucks for the surgery including $200 blood work (thyroid). This seems high based on the internet research I've done, although those numbers are not bulldog specific. They also want to keep Herschel over night which I'm sure jacks up the price. Does this sound right? Recs for...

Things are not going so well at our house… Roxie has been getting up pacing again at night, and yesterday she was refusing food. I gave her some boiled rice/chicken last night and she ate almost 1/2 cup. Well after being up all night, this morning she in now refusing water. We are headed to...

We discovered this week that Roxie seems to be allergic to her thyroid med :blink: She was put back on it for about a week this time, and she was acting VERY odd… she was waking me up at all hours of the night (starting around 3am) wanting to go out, having accidents in the bedroom, very...

Just got off the phone w/the vet… Roxie's blood work came back the same… NO changes!!! Her liver and cholesterol were slightly elevated which was expected because of the cushings and thyroid issues. So now that we are seeing SOME slight improvement w/her cushings symptoms she wants to focus on...

Ok so last night I gave Roxie 2 of the 1mg melatonins… I was determined to get some sleep last night. Well she DID sleep thru the night, of course I woke up around 4am just waiting for the whining to start, but she was silent :babysleep: and luckily I was able to fall back asleep. SO this...
