Subject: Re: Alternative insulinoma treatments?

Just from having had ferrets decently before folks really knew
what to do for them: back then we would use sugar and
because Fritter had lymphoma we also tried Pred. Neither alone
held her, but she got about 9 months with the combination.
Maybe they should add dietary sugar available at all times to the
mix. We found liquids to the be the easiest way to do that. Heck,
nine months, wasn't bad, esp, since Frit's wasn't found until a
day that she almost died of sugar drop. Like nine years for a
human.
