Originally posted by WItoTX View PostAsk your vet about Addisons Disease. My dog had it, and she was the only dog to come in with it that year. Basically her adrenal glands shut down. She was weak for a few days before I took her in. Found out she was close to death.
She got an IV, Precortin injection, and she was like new. She gets really expensive shots once a month now, but totally worth it.Originally posted by be12hunt View PostThat's exactly what they are thinking it is. They didn't have time to get a sample in before the labs closed so they went ahead and gave the precortin injection and gave us some steroid injections to give her over the weekend. She's already acting better and ate some food.

Sorry for the delay in updating but it took awhile to get the stuff necessary to test. I just got off the phone with the vet who said the test confirms she has Addison's disease which is treatable. We are going first thing in the morning to get her a shot that will balance her out. She will need to take this once a month but other than that should be good.
Thanks yo everyone who sent out prayers, our family really appreciates it.
