I was told that discharge isn't indicative of adrenal (by my vet, I
believe).  My vet suspected an infection based on the discharge, but that
is all in the past, it turns out Miya *did* have adrenal and everything
went back to normal.  It's just that this is the first time I've heard of
the discharge associated with adrenal.  Anyone else shocked?  Anyone else
know this?  I'd like to mention it to my vet for her future reference if
this is "fact." Thanks!
