Subject: Re: ] Enlarged Spleen and Heliobacter
Put it in and do a search in the archives for tons of info,
an infection that causes stomach ulcers in ferrets, similar to
the one that causes the same in humans.
Not all ulcers are caused by Helicobacter though.

p.s. Might try the common misspelling of Heliobacter as
well when doing a search, I think it will search by the
way the person posting spelled it.
è Helicobacter is often treated with amoxicilin, Biaxin
è and Carafate.
But what is Helicobacter?
