Subject: Re: Marlow's vet visit, he has heartworms
You might want to check out Dr. Kemmerer's article on heartworm in
ferrets that's on my ferret health care website. The URL is...
http://www.miamiferret.org/fhc/heartworm.htm
According to Dr. K, ultrasound can return both false negatives and
positives, so it doesn't seem that it would be a reliable test to
determine the worm burden.
