You may have more than one problem. The seizure, staring into space, and hind end weakness ALL sound like insulinoma. Has his blood glucose been checked recently? The stress of insulinoma on the body can lead to other problems, such as ulcers, which could be the cause of the bad poops and the blood. We have dealt with this double-problem in the past: insulinoma and ulcers. He needs to get his glucose checked immediately, and if it's low, then start on Prednisolone right away. However, he may also need treatment for ulcers, which, if left untreated, can perforate his stomach and kill him. You can find insulinoma info at several places, but here's the best places to start: Dr. Williams' site: http://www.afip.org/ferrets/PDF/insulinoma.pdf And then here: http://www.miamiferret.org/fhc/treatment.htm Also, here's some links on info about possible causes of diarrhea: http://www.miamiferret.org/fhc/poop_chart.htm http://www.afip.org/ferrets/Ferret%20IBD.pdf http://www.afip.org/ferrets/ECE/ECE.html http://www.afip.org/ferrets/PDF/Ferret_GI_path_reports.pdf http://www.petcarevabeach.com/dia.html http://www.petplace.com/article-printer-friendly.aspx?id=528 http://www.veterinarypartner.com/Content.plx?P=A&A=477&S=5&SourceID=43 http://www.zoopath.com/DiseasesofDomesticFerrets.pdf http://pets.groups.yahoo.com/group/ferrethealth/message/590 Jeff In Memory of Neo Caring for Trinny, Morphy, Baby Girl, and Luna [Posted in FML 5948]
