Just clarification: A BG monitor at home to check BG levels when a crisis (or change) is at hand can save the life.Using KARO syrup can too but these are only home remedies and contact with your VET is the most Crucial as Tara states: >So just a heads up... I'm very happy you saved your baby,tho Rosemary;)) >Just be VERY VERY careful!! I just worry that self diagnosis & giving >meds,and things doing so well, may be in the minority?? ... > >Tara;-) I have had this experience many times to know protocol in an emergency but immediate contact with your VET is strongly recommended before going further and administering meds. If anyone is interested in learning how to check BG on Ferret- I have copies from previous post that i can send. Respectfully, Rose German [Posted in FML issue 4568]
