Jo,
Thank you for such an informative reply.
I have since spoken to the head vet at the practice who's specilism is addisons.
We will be starting on the recommended starting dose of zycortal and 5mg of prednisolone. I am anxious about lots and lots of blood tests but hopefully it will go smoothly with not too many side effects.
He's in such a good, happy place and it took us over 18 months to settle him onto florinef. Hopefully being as stable as he is this won't rock the boat too much.
I do worry that if it makes him more lively as people have reported for their dogs that he will be totally bonkers!!
As for the research I hadnt heard about. I will certainly investigate.
