Subject: [ferrethealth] Right after 2nd adrenal removal - How to proceed?
To: ferrethealth@smartgroups.com
Hi All
I would like to know how the ferret needs to be medicated right after the surgery to remove the 2nd adrenal gland. I believe that by being without any adrenal gland he/she should receive hormones at the vet´s office. Is this right? If so, what should be given, and for how much time?
My concern is that I´ve seen several ferrets to suffer and die just a few days after having the second adrenal removed. Even the ones who do not die take weeks in suffering before recovering. Is it that common? Is there a way to help them to get well soon and with less suffering? Otherwise it would be preferable not to operate the ones who had already had one adrenal gland removed.
Thanks a lot
Alessandra
