I am sorry to hear about Dipper. A member on here, Coco, after blood tests, used Vetoryl for Cushings - she has a thread on the treatment progress throughout her hamster’s life- it may be of help also.

I hope the medication helps- it should slow disease progress. Did they look at the pituitary gland on the scans? There are two types of Cushings - one from the pituitary gland, one from the adrenal glands.

Either way I hope your hammy lives out his life comfortably.
