Subject: [Ferret-Health-list] Needs adrenal surgery
Hi Jim & Laura;
I know of several people that have used the services of Dr.
Dulak. She is located in Traverse City at the Cherry Bend
Animal Hospital. Phone is 231-922-0500. Good luck with your
little one.
Mary

Thanks for the feed-back about Simon (who is on melatonin)
and even though his fur has grown back that there is still a
need to have the adrenal surgery done. My vet is the best I
can find around here and I know he's not up on adrenal
surgery. We're in MI's Upper Peninsula near Iron
Mountain....if anyone knows of anyone, we'd love to know!
Bob Church has a very well-done article on adrenal disease
and from what we can gather from the article, ferrets that
do not have any treatment live about a year, plus or minus 6
months. And ferrets older than 5 that have surgery will
live about 1 and a half years, plus or minus 6 months. It
doesn't sound very encouraging.
