Hi! Just a quick posting - I have a 4.5 yr old male (Clint) scheduled for adrenal surgery this Thursday. He had his right adrenal removed (or most of it) last January and did great, but has been showing clinical signs since late November. Questions: is there anything special Clint will need if his last adrenal gland is removed? I had heard about some corticosteroid therapy, but don't know much about it. My vet is a good surgeon but not as ferret knowledgeable as many in larger areas, so I would need to know about dosages and the like. (Clint weighs 1.6 lbs) Also, would it be better not to subject him to a second surgery and just treat him medically? He came through his surgery fine last time, but I'm still nervous. Thanks for your time! Please email me directly as I don't get much chance to read the list as I would like.
