I didn't really think Teddy had Cushing's. I mean, he doesn't look like that stereotypical horse. And yet... I had him tested, just because maybe. Now I get to join the Cushing's Club.
This is his test result:
Endogenous ACTH baseline Equine 12 pg/mL
Endogenous ACTH post (10min) 617 pg/mL
Per the test notes, anything over 200 indicates PPID. So... is 617 a lot? It looks like a really big number. He really doesn't look too bad. He just is losing topline and his coat sheds out later...
Please welcome me to the Cushing's Club 😕
