So glad Lady is back home and lets hope the results show something that can be treated and she doesn't have to go through any more tests. I am guessing that she is red on the shaved patches because of her many allergies - have you tried a bit of sudocrem which may sooth it a little. There is another cream that Dogsey members have suggested before but I can't remember it's name but I am sure someone will give advice.

Hope Lady is not too uncomfortable and you manage to get some rest. Hugs to you both. xx

Awwww, that looks sore That's purely clipper rash, so you need to get some soothing cream into it, maybe Sudocreme or Vit E cream or something. bit of a messy job they did on those legs, but I expect that was in a hurry to get the drip into her and might have been done by an inexperienced nurse having a practice with the clippers. It'll soon come fine once you've put something on it to soothe it. I had the same when Zena was speyed, they had shaved her entire abdomen, even the insides of her legs and she was covered in that clipper rash, but Sudocreme sorted it.

She must be a bit better coz she's sitting up for you instead of lying down sleeping, so that's progress in itself. I do hope she manages to eat something later too, that'd be good. All the best with her, I know you're going to take very good care of her.xxx

The vet has ladys results back , he said the results show that she most likely has cushings , but they need to take her back in tomorrow to do one more test ,this one is over 8 hours ,he said they have got to make 100% sure that it is cushings cause the medication is expensive ,they dont want to give her the medication if they not 100% sure .
So i have to take her down tomorrow morning and they keep her in all day . they said i need to take her down for 7.30am.
Poor lady is already really stressed out

Oh goodness poor Lady and poor you for all the worry.
What she is going through must be so awful but hopefully after tomorrow you can start looking forward. Everything crossed here and thinking of you both xx
