Hello,
I am a long time silent reader and have gained so much knowledge and love
from reading all the posts.  But now, I have a question for all those who
have lots of experience.
 
I have a 5 1/2 year female, "Fenway"(yes, named after the baseball park
in boston).  She was diagnosed with insulinoma 2 months ago and has been
put on prednisone.  At first, twice a day everyday.  Now, it is once a
day.  She had responded well, symptons disappearing.  But now I have
noticed that she is experiencing them once again.  My question: I will
consider surgery and have an appointment this week for blood glucose test
and ultra sound.  What will be the expectancy of life for the little one?
Is there success and better quality of life?  I would like to know before
I put her through this surgery.  She already had adrenal a year ago and
was so pitiful.
 
Thank you all for your enlightenment, experience, and stories of hope and
love.
 
A lover of all animals....
Leeanne and little "fenway"
