I took five of my ferrets to the vet last night for rabies vaccines. All were pretreated with benadryl via injection. My 5 year old Lola started throwing up and was taken back to the treatment room. My vet came back and said she had been given fluids, dexamethasone, oxygen but still wasn't coming out of it. My vet brought me back to the treatment room where she was limp and non-responsive. Her temperature was down and when that was checked she had bloody fluid come out. She did not respond to anything. They couldnt find a vein and then clipped a toenail. Her sugar was so low it didnt register. They could not get a catheter in to get iv sugar(?) in but gave them sub q. We talked about taking her to the ER vet but most of the ones around here dont do ferrets. Vet offered to take her home but since she was out of answers I wanted her to be home with me. She gave me fluids with dextrose for Lola and I brought her home. She was still very limp for a few hours but started to move a little. She started panting and I gave her food and a drop or two of pancake syrup (didnt have karo) and she stopped panting. This morning she is better but now the vet and I are now wondering if she may have had an underlying insulinoma issue we didnt know about or it was just the reaction that lowered her BG. I was scared as hell and the Vet said last night she said she had seen reactions before but not that severe and she has been a vet 30 years. I have had reactions before too with other ferrets but not like this. I have always been religious about vaccinating but am really wondering now. Any comments or thoughts? [Posted in FML 6501]
