It sounds as if the Prednisone should be highered,
however until you get the okay from your vet, how is
the ferret's appetite? Are you feeding her a high
protein supplement such as CHICKEN BABYFOOD?
Try feeding her about 20ccs of babyfood every 3-4
hours and see if that will help! If the ferret is
sleeping too long between meals, her glucose may be
low because of that, so feeding regularly might help
for now! More than likely it will help level off the
glucose and hold it there, until you can get speak to
your vet, keep trying!!!
Many on the list here also use DIAZOXIDE as well as
PRED. when blood glucose is not raised sufficiently,
so you may want to ask your vet about that!---Angela.
