To: ferrethealth@yahoogroups.com

Hi Sukie

> http://www.miamiferret.org/fhc/megaesophagus.htm

Thankfully I don't think this matches Willow - I think any time she
has vomited the food has been in her for a few hours before coming up,
and I am pretty sure the vets would have noticed any problems when
they were doing the endoscopy on her.

I guess I'll stick to the current treatment for a few more weeks -
it's certainly made a positive impact on her eating and weight, so
that's something. Perhaps she just has a particularly stubborn dose of
helicobacter. I know my own ulcer some years ago took a lot longer
than 2 weeks to entirely clear up!

In any case I guess it's better to extend her zantac dose a while
longer (despite this not being ideal) than risk her relapsing into
vomiting every day or two.

Thanks,

Robert
