Addisons Disease follow up

[Lee Seidman]

Well the vet called this morning and confirmed her thoughts. She said Lexi tested positive for Addisons. She will need daily pills and a monthly injection but she should be able to lead  a fairly normal long life...........thats the good news.............bad news is Percorten seems to be a pretty expensive drug. Not sure how long a vial lasts.

[Jennifer,Chloe & Myla]

Sorry to hear this, but sounds like she'll still be your normal Lexi if treatment is followed. Thinking of you all in this tough time. Hope she can adjust well.

[Leslie and Halas]

I'm sorry you didn't get a better result.  But I'm glad to hear that she can still live a normal life with treatments.  At least you know what you're dealing with now.

[Lucy & AnnaBelle's Mom]

Sorry to hear it wasn't the news you were hoping for.  Know we are thinking of you and hoping the meds get her feeling all better.

[Donna K & Quincy]

We hope with the new medication Lexi is feeling good soon.

[Sharon & Monty]

So sorry to hear of this diagnosis.  Better days ahead.

[BG and Gavin]

Sending best wishes your way.  I feel bad that you recieved this diagnosis, but glad that it can be controlled.

[Laurie, Fudge, and Vern]

Sorry to hear about Lexi, but glad you have a diagnosis and treatment plan. Good luck!!

[Nicky, Riley & Boris]

I am saddened to hear this news but at least you now have a diagnosis and treatment plan.  I think there are other Doodle owners here who also have Dogs with Addisons and if you do a search you should find them.  Networking with others in the same situation will hopefully give you lots of tips and advice for what to expect, costs of drugs etc.  I wish Lexi and you all the very best.

[F, Calla & Luca]

I too am sorry to hear Lexi has Addison's but her prognosis is good and that's what counts.

[Nancy, Ned, Clancy, and Charlie]

I am so sorry about the diagnosis. At least you know what she has and that it is treatable. Sending good thoughts your way.

[Ginny Nightingale]

It is so hard to deal with a disease when it is hurting your pocketbook, but I know that you will find a way and that Lexi will thrive and have a great life. Good luck to all.

[Bonnie and Kona]

Hoping for the very best results from Lexi's treatment. I am so sorry for all of you.
