I don't think this vet is at all interested in learning, but I'll share the links with my regular
local (nonferret) vet. I just went to this guy because he has his own lab and I could get the
results of the blood test faster from him. I think it was a mistake.
Do the results below indicate borderline kidney failure or anything else alarming?
Should I go ahead and give the cefadrops for a possible infection affecting Buddy's poop?
(It seems to be mostly for staph and strep but also e coli, salmonella. That doesn't sound
like anything that would cause chronic suspicious poop, does it?) 1/4 ml (@50mg/ml) 2x
daily OK or harmful? What about giving metacam for pain even though he's already on .02
of pred 2x a day--that's two steroids.
