Subject: Adrenal AGAIN second time
I have a very small male silver mitt that was operated on two
and a half years ago at the age of two for both bilateral
adrenal and insulinoma surgery. A small piece of adrenal gland
was left to help the hormons work properly. Now the poor guy
is losing all of his hair, losing weight and getting very
lathargic. He is eating kibble very well and getting duck soup
twice a day on top of it. Would surgery be an option for this
guy or should we just get him on medication? Thanks for any
answers.
