| | Addisons |
 | | The best news is that Addison’s can be treated effectively and a dog with this disease can lead a good life, once he is stabilized on medications. | | | Because our vet had recently treated another dog with Addison’s Disease (a lab cross), she was on the right track immediately and Alex was expertly treated. | | | There seems to be a link between the Addison's and the Epilepsy but it isn't supposed to happen if the dogs are properly medicated and balanced which Sassy is and was. |

If you work with your vet and are careful about following his or her directions this disease has a good prognosis when it is discovered before a crisis occurs. | | | Now my dog does not want to get out of his bed and he seems to be in a lot of pain. | | | Our Dylan has just turned 3 years old and we hope that you can answer our concern, is this disease a lifetime, chronic disease or will she ultimately be cured of this? |
