Trying to find out more for you and someone else I have come across some things of interest.
WAS THIS FERRET ALSO GIVEN LUPRON? It looks like Lupron may not be a good idea when a cardiac problem is already in place. If Lupron had also been given since the heart was dilated -- indicating cardiomyopathy -- then that may have set the stage for worse trouble.
Lupron depot is normally a wonderful drug, but like any med of any type it has its contraindications.

This is following one is interesting. If accurate, melatonin can actually have positive cardiac effects. I didn't know that.
