Trazodone/gaba/diazepam combo barely touches him. I&amp;rsquo;ve sedated him at his home to run ACTH stim tests but these tests aren&amp;rsquo;t inexpensive. Of course, he&amp;rsquo;s ended up on BID Vetoryl so medication costs are also high. I really want to help the owners out with this but also need to monitor somehow.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;if the UCCR were normal would that indicate reasonable control? I know it&amp;rsquo;s not perfect but would it be any use at all or just a waste of time and money? Any other suggestions?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thanks!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>VetSurgeon.org</title><link>https://www.vetsurgeon.org/members/brianhs/activities/2fda945a-b13a-44aa-9f46-87a17cba650f</link><pubDate>Fri, 27 Sep 2013 08:54:58 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">146601cc-3922-4be7-9974-7e1d4e45a66b:2fda945a-b13a-44aa-9f46-87a17cba650f</guid><dc:creator /><description /></item></channel></rss>
