We just found out tonight that one of our Ferrets is adrenal, he's between 5
and 6 years of age, in good health, and we're wondering what would be the
best option for him?
In the long run, would Lupron be a better choice than surgery, or would
surgery be better than long term Lupron injections?
What exactly does the Lupron do to suppress the effects of being adrenal?
Also, he has developed a tumor on the end of his tail, could this be due to
the adrenal disease or something else? We first started noticing it on him
when he started displaying the systems of adrenal disease and were wondering
if anyone has had the same condition arise when their ferret became adrenal?
