Fox's biopsy results came back. The lumps that were removed were lymph nodes, however no cancerous cells were found. She just hat a really bad infection. The vet said they definitely needed to be removed as they were swollen to the point of being dangerous for rupturing. She looks good, all bruising is gone, and seems to feel good. Don't know if it was the surgery, but she seems fine. Now, her glucose was normal today, but was not normal (58,48, 59)for 3 days in a row before surgery. However, her insulin level was low. Vet says the lymph nodes were positive for lymphoconic infection? Has to do with having an infection, and then the lymph nodes get swollen and infected themselves, I think. Honestly, I have no clue what is going on. All I know is that she feels better! Timon was fine at the vets over the weekend due to a week of runny stools and being "off." Sat. had diarrhea and presenting with rubbing the face and possible grinding after eating or medicating w/ carafete (2.5 cc daily) spread over the course of the day (3 times .83 cc), Sunday no diarrhea or grinding. However, he had it again today. Vet thinks it is either ulcers caused by helicobacter--the common one for ferrets or his teeth, as when he called me today, he was pawing at his teeth and rubbing his face, but only after being medicated and fed. He heaves after medication and chicken gravy (hates it), but is not eating much. Grrr. This is annoying me! He is supposed to go back in Wed. if he hasn't improved. [Posted in FML issue 3936]
