Hind end weakness is a generalized problem, and can be a symptom of
many things, including anemia, insulinoma and ADV. I always
recommend that ferrets with this symptom be tested for ADV, to at
least rule it out. Actually, I recommend all ferrets be tested for
ADV, but especially those displaying symptoms.
