Subject: re:fluid in abdomen (vets too please)
Hi,
This is third hand, so I do not know if I have all of my facts
straight. My neighbour just returned from Prague, Czech. from
visiting a friend with a ferret. There are not a lot of
ferrets there, so the vet is unsure how to proceed. The
abdomen is really swollen. Some fluid with lipids was drawn
off. My first thought was cardiomyopathy, but apparently
x-rays show the organs as normal.
I have attached a picture of the ferret, who looks like he
also has adrenal disease, but I would assume at this point
that is not his primary problem. The friend is looking for
any information as how to proceed. I am sorry that I do not
have anymore information.
Thank you,
Steph
