Dr. Williams, thanks so much for your response about Jasper's bilateral adrenal. I went ahead and had a chem screen & electrolyte test done on him. I was almost positive it was going to come back that he needed the percorten too. Unfortunately that was not the case. His electrolytes came back fine. His B.U.N level (blood urinia nitrogen(sp?) came back at 116!! If I understood correctly a "high normal" level would be 45. We are thinking that since his prostate never fully went down between the left adrenal surgery in August, and the right adrenal on Dec. 21st, that there is possible kidney damage. I was told to add a bit of salt to his ducksoup/babyfood to encourage him to drink more to try and flush his system. I did get him to drink more but decided since he hadn't really improved to take him in and have subq fluids administered. (I also came down with that flu like bug and didn't want him to catch it) They are cautiously optomistic that we can get his level down. I was wondering how common this is, and if he might stand a good chance of getting through this. Can you do dialysis on a ferret? He said if we could get it down to the 50's he should be okay. Jasper still gets little bouts of energy and doesn't seem to me like he is telling me it will be his time to go soon, so I am hoping for the best. Again, thanks for any input on this. ~Amy~ & the 4 [Posted in FML issue 3308]
