Hi Dr Sue

Thank you.

I brought Cho in to the first Vet that treated him for
the coccidia. (he went out of town otherwise we would
have continued seeing him all along).

We put him on predinsone. The vet thinks its lymph
cancer or possibly one of the new horrible virus's.
Cho doesn't have a bloody stool (i have been looking
for that). I was wondering if this could possibly be
because the coccidia never went away? we put him back
on albon to treat for that just in case. the vet
didn't offer a transfusion as an option. by chance do
you know of a vet in SE Michigan that would be able to
do that? Neither of the vets that have seen cho
mentioned it as an option.

Thank you,
Wendy

[Moderator's Note: the vet probably did not know that ferrets don't have blood groups to complicate that option.]
