I don't post often, just enjoy reading and learning. I have a private ferret rescue in VA for about 13 years now. I tend to take in the elderly, sick, blind, or ones people just don't want. None are usually adoptable. About a year ago I had to stop taking in any new sweeties. My Momo died and the findings showed probable ADV, a month later I lost another with the same symptoms. I now have a 4 year old, (one of 7) Miss Sophie, who I received from my vet about a year and a half ago. A week after I got her she got extremely sick, the vet believed it was ECE, after getting down to under a pound and a week of tube feeding, she improved. AT the time she was given to the vet, she had a swollen spot on one of her front toes. After regaining her health, the toe was removed, and was shown to be non cancerous. She has been healthily tell now. Her lymph nodes at her neck and hind area are very swollen, and work shows it is cancerous. What are other possible treatments besides radiationand chemo? We have her on antibiotics and may start her on pedipred. Other ideas would be extremely appreciated. Thank You. You may email me privately at [log in to unmask] Shelley [Posted in FML issue 4522]
