Default Cushings disease

My dog was recently diagnosed. He is a 6 year old pure breed teacup
Pomeranian (cute as hell). All the typical symptoms - hair loss,
pigmentation, etc. We've read that incidence for the disease in his breed
and age is rare, more likely the symtoms are due to a tumor.

Anyone deal with this disease with their pet? I am looking for treatments
that work and are the least traumatic to the dog or any other
experience/information you can share with us in these anxious times.

We've tried Selegiline(?) for a month with no improvements - symptoms
actually worsening.

NYC metro area, but willing to make a day trip if necessary. Anyone know of
any specialists/hospitals with a proven track record for curing Cushings?
Thank you so much.

D + A (and "Peanut")
