OK everyone . . . . it's Miss Phoebe "acting up" AGAIN (I know, I know - AGAIN?) I just introduced the diazoxide (.10mL 2x/day) to her pred dose (.40mL 2x/day) for her insulinoma and for a week she was doing GREAT! Then, throughout past week, she's been acting "funny" and I'm wondering if anyone might know, based on the following symptoms, what might be causing this unsual behavior ... It happens almost always after she's eaten. She gets her soup (mixed with prednisolone and diazoxide, for her insulinoma) and about 7-10 min. after she's eaten, she'll starting running around very fast (unusual for her) like she's desperately looking for a litterbox because she has to pee (but she never uses a litterbox anyway so this IS strange). She even starts stumbling and falling over to one side like she's drunk and then flattens out and begins acting like she's out of breath. A few times she looks like she has "hind end weekness" and sometimes when she eats, too, she will "rock" ever so gently up and down - not from side to side but up and down, like from nose to hind paws. I'm seriously thinking that she could be having seizures of some sort, due to unbalanced glucose levels, particularly when she doesn't seek out her food and eat for long periods of time (over 6 hrs.). But it's odd that her erratic behavior happens AFTER she's eaten and she bounces back very quickly after about 5 min. of running around frantic. She's then back to her "normal" self and putzing around like nothing's happened. I'm taking her in to her doctor on Saturday and he's saying he wants to do so more in-depth blood work than what they normally do but I do not know to what extent. I was told by one of the more experienced vets here that if you're goint to run a Tenn Panel, it's best to wait until early fall (Aug./ Sept), when you can be certain the ferrets' hormones (females) are back in check from Spring and Summer months, to get a more accurate reading. Anyone know the validity to this reasoning or have an suggestions about what is causing Phoebe's erratic behavior? Please feel free to cross-post as you see fit.
