If anyone has any ideas on this, please let me know. Has anyone ever seen
a ferret with Adrenal Disease whose only symptom is a swollen vulva? And
what could a CBC tells us in regards to Adrenal Disease?

I have seen several ferrets whose only symptoms of adrenal disease were an
enlarged vulva. And a CBC will not help in the diagnosis of adrenal disease at
all.

I would recommend either doing the Tennessee Panel, or exploratory surgery.
