So I'm not the only one puzzled by this? Having been through 6 Adrenal surgeries in less than one year, and with another coming up this Tuesday, I thought it sounded odd to me that any vet would opt to leave a second gland in if it needed to be removed. I would think the risk of that gland being or becoming Malignant, as well as the stress of a second surgery, would be far worse then removing it while already in there. Kim, if you don't mind my asking, who is your vet? Is this doctor Ferret knowlegable and experienced? I personally would question this doctors reasoning. Best wishes to you and your Tucker! :) Karen McCabe [Posted in FML issue 4020]
