First of all thank you to everyone who has responded so far, I appreciate it so much. I have the ferret (Bo) with Helicobactor. He has not improved. His diarrhea has gotten much worse today. Usually when I feed him I aim for 15-20 ml at a time. He will usually not fight me until I have about 10 ml down him. This afternoon and tonight he has done nothing but fight me from the first bite. I can not get the metronidazole down him and when I do he vomits it back up. I am so scared I am going to loose him. He is slightly dehydrated tonight, I am assuming from the diarrhea. If anyone knows what I can do please give me an idea. This has been going on for 2 weeks tonight. He is still currently on Amoxi (he will have been on it for 2 weeks tomorrow), chlorphenicol (one week on Saturday) and carafate. Thank you all again. Stephanie [Posted in FML issue 3470]
