I posted a while back about my ferret wasting and a bunch of people gave
me advice and i took the little guy in for a fecal. well, had to send
results out for lab testing but the doctor said it wasn't coccidia but
looked like a yeast infection based on the shape and look of the cells.
And he saw active cell-budding like it was a really bad infection. Has
anyone ever dealt or heard of this? it was new to him and i can't find
anything online.
Besides that, he thinks my little guy has a mass in his abdomen near
liver, around kidneys, maybe interacting with bowels(causing diarrhea
or infection)and gave him a poor prognosis. Besides diarrhea, no
other recent clinical signs or change in attitude. He's too weak for
exploratory surgery now and i worry constantly since the vet told me
that. What's next? 2nd opinion? ultrasound?
