Thank you so much for your suggestions, the first test was at a 5.7 and I am awaiting the results of a second test. The initial blood test also revealed Diabetes Insipidus but I feel there is more to it than that and I see many of the symptoms of hyperthyroidism which i've read is usually results from medication for hypo and I had not given any such meds so it's a mystery how it was contracted. And we did lose her half brother in January which would explain added stress.

Canine Thyroid Carcinoma in my 8 1/2 y/o Basenji
-
My boy has been diagnosed very recently with a rare form of cancer, Canine Thyroid Carcinoma, which accounts for only about 1% of all tumors in dogs. He's being treated by an oncologist and internist and the prognosis is actually very good. With surgery to remove half his thyroid and radiation treatment he will make a full recovery. I post this because we caught this early only because he had a really bad bladder infection that required blood work. If you want more info on his story, see his facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/HelpUsSaveLeroy. Also we want to hear from anyone that has had to deal with this issue as well to find out how the treatments went and so forth.
