My pup has Addisons. She got so sick and it broke my heart. I’m just so thankful I can keep her relatively healthy and happy with a monthly injection and some steroids. ❤
I had a strange reaction to the second part of diagnosis. They confirmed that I had low cortisol like really really low. Then it was to inject cortisol into my blood to do some other test, but I had a reaction to the cortisol 100 mg injection and my blood pressure dropped very very fast and low and I have to go to the hospital. And now there are not going to do the for the test because they don't want to but I am on cortisone tablets now.
@@AllStarVeterinaryClinicI live in Europe, I didn't get an addison's disease diagnosis eventhough my cortisol was under 2. They call it adrenal insufficiency. Which is weird because the value showed I was in an adrenal crisis so...... Medical policy is different everywhere.
My dogs cortisol test was inconclusive, and right now I can’t afford the full test but my pup is doing better. It’s been a long two months and I’m scared if this is his full diagnosis.

It’s a brutal disease - glad you found the right care and rhythm for your fur baby 😊
I have Addisons and was confused why everyone is talking about dogs lmao. Like why are there more dogs than people with it
Lol maybe but this is a veterinarian channel so it makes sense
I have Addisons disease. Was in a major Addisons crisis when I got diagnosed.
Thank you! I am struggling with this right now.
You’re welcome 😊
What about a saliva test during the whole day ?because it changes during the whole day
Hi, I was wondering is it possible to diagnose Cushings from the same test?
Yes!
@@AllStarVeterinaryClinic thank you!😃
Magical no is 2 . If your cortisol level is less then 2 then you have chance of ad. Disease. Some people with 3,4 , 5 are unnecessarily taking tention

@@zeynand4039primary adrenal insufficiency is the same thing as Addison's

I can diagnose Addison disease with the snap test from index?Or I need to inject acth and measure before and after?
