Ok, this is too much of a coincidence.  I want to take all these stories
about the dermatitis to my doctor/allergist.  I invite any and all who
have ever had a reaction to their ferrets, whether known adrenal or
not, to please email me with symptoms, and any other pertinent info you
can think of.  I want to print all this out and take it to my
dermatologist/doctor/allergist to show them and see what they think.
They all three told me that it was impossible for people to be allergic
to ferrets, but if I can show them others having the same symptoms then
maybe they will believe it.  And more importantly, then we may be able to
start finding a cure for our allergies.  And for the person who mentioned
the oils and dander in the skin, I react strongest to kisses.
