Hello DOn,
INdeed we have the same issue with Jerimiah FerretWise over the past few
years He has had the same exact symptoms. Presently, at age 7 , he is on
monthly Lupron & melatonin implants which seem to not affect the spurratic
sneezing outbreaks and screaming fits. What seems to work here is a dose fo
children's benedryl . Once administered the episodes have not returned
for a lengthy period of time ( months) ... It is all speculation but since
the winter season is here, with dryer air form heating and dust being
stirred up... might this be an allergy prompting the fits?
Just a thought,
Alicia at www.ferretwise.org
