Thanks Skooshbag.

It's Takara that's had the T4 test when she became incontinent. I remember, because I was the ACA at the vets then and I sent off the test!

What's certainly worrying is he does wee a lot, his exercise levels have increased and his appetite has increased although following quite a lot of weight loss, he's no longer losing it - but maintaining a low weight.

So we'll see! Thanks for the link x

Hi Lottie in addition to a thyroid test has Eddy been checked for diabetes ?
My friends Springer Ben was driving everyone mad, he was losing weight and begging for food/stealing all the time also drinking /peeing more. He turned out to be diabetic.

I was going to suggest diabetes as a possiblitly as well on also reading about him urinating alot. Bring along a urnine sample to the vet if you can, they can test that for sugar there and then.
