Yesterday was..... "I don't have Cushings" day, as well as PINK, RED AND BLACK DAY, with a splash of yellow. He is, no doubt still bouncing from all those greens the night before, and the dramatic fashion in which he got there, the FDMB Olympic Diving Champion was in prime form and took a very nice dive to get to that lagoon.It was no surprise that the next morning found him beyond the stratosphere... like the alpha zone. Yesterday we are still playing on the red floor as a result of that gorgeous dive. :roll: :roll: I hope for a good day today, more blues would be so cool! Mannie - here's to you, some very strong feel better, be blue vines. Lubs ya big guy! cat_pet_icon
Mannie's Cushings test did come in: Negative. OH HOORAY. Here is what I wrote yesterday, after talking with the IM Vetty:
AND !!!!! CUSHINGS TEST WAS NEGATIVE!!! WOOT WOOT WOOT WOOT! I'm a bit unclear on the specifics, but his reading was a 5, and I guess anything over a 13 is considered positive. SO... A relief there. It is beginning to look like he has aldosteronism, which summed up is an excessive concentration of the hormone aldosterone. Which affects alot of things.... including hypertension. anyways we will be adding a new med (spironolactone SP??) to the mix to try and control that. I'm told this med will help with potassium retention and sodium excretion. that's about all I know, at this point, and I have reading to do... very techie stuff! :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: We will run with this med mix for two weeks and then retest potassium levels ad his BP. Paws crossed folks that this works.... I am so relieved that we are not dealing with Cushings... though I wonder how much better this DX is. :roll: ;-) :lol:
All is well in MannieLand.
It was a quiet day yesterday in MannieLand. We had somewhat of a decent weather day, with even come sun breaks. Mannie made a trip out onto the deck to get his yard sniffs in. I love to watch that little nose work overtime. :lol: :lol: Mid afternoon a sunbeam dound its way tot he top of the stairs. I had to laugh - it was like a alarm bell went off, alerting him to sun beam activity. he was there as soon as it showed up. :lol: :lol: The rest of the ay was spent napping, in his bed, or with the nanners. It was a so so day for Mannie. He seemed to feel OK, just a little subdued. Appy has been good (picky !!!, but good), CPC yesterday and this morning, LB is normal, Ketones tests have been negative. Test was good this morning, as was the shoot. 
I think I can still say: Normalcy in MannieLand.
Have a great day everyone. Today they start work on the drainage system her at the house. I expect a mess... lots of digging, lots of dirt piles, lot of ugh! I will be glad when ti is completed and my yard can once again be "normal". This morning I am having breffis with my son - woo hoo! Looking forward to that.
*** YAWN*** .... Hey everybody!! I am sooooooooooooooooooo tired!!!! what a day yesterday - THREE parties! How did we do it all? TWO OTJ's!!! The full moon party at the Castle was so cool. I so hope to go back to NYC today and hang out with Rusty. We so need a chillaxin' day..... Rusty! DUDE! Where can we chillax in NYC??? uhhhh.... it's NYC - maybe we don't want to. See you guys soon! ~ Mannie
