My ferret Suzy is 6 years old. About 3 months ago she was diagnosed with heart disease (she also has adrenal disease). She's on lasix and enalapril. It helped a great deal for a while and now she seems like she is getting worse. She seems to "space out" and gets shaky. Unfortunately only xrays have been done so far. We had an ultrasound done but the vet did not have any experience with ferrets. I don't know what kind of heart disease she has and I don't know where to go from here. She also gets VERY stressed at the vets and I don't want to put her through a lot of stress. Any suggestions?
