Wondering if any of you know of a good ferret vet with a great success rate removing the entire right adrenal - including litgation (sp?) of the right vena cava in Southern Michigan or Northern parts of the states that adjoing southern michigan. My 5.5 year old Luke went through left removal this past January and a debulking of the right. He came along great-was very hairless- most of his coat came back in a couple of months and it is beautiful. BUT he seems to have went adrenal again- mostly with straining of urination-not a hair loss- he is on his first Lupron depot and is doing better. My vet is ferrety and very good but he stated before the removal of the left that he is not comfortable removing the right gland.

Thanks
Debra
