thanx Lisa for the info. we are more hopeful for Sabre now. he
is still not eating on his own, but is showing a bit more interest
in his food. he's still on the L-aspariginase, and was just
started on Pred last Friday.
we want him to gain a bit more weight and then maybe start on a
more aggressive protocol to battle the lymphoma. (want the weight
gain first since we heard some of the chemo drugs make you feel
bad) our vets don't treat a lot of ferrets with chemo, and they
think ferrets don't do well on them. so we are wondering what people
experiences are with chemo therapy and what protocols has a high
success rate.
thank you.
