Subject: [ferrethealth] Need help diagnosing foamy white poop
To: ferrethealth@yahoogroups.com
Levi is adrenal & he has insulinoma. He gets pred 3xday. He eats just
about every four hours (only ground chicken & baby food). About a month
ago he developed very white foamy poop with mucous. The vet prescribed
Bioxin (which he took for 17 days). While on the Bioxin his poops were
normal. He finished the meds yesterday. Now I see where half of his
poop is normal but then the other half is getting white foaminess
again. His lymph nodes in his neck and legs were a bit swollen when the
vet prescribed the Bioxin. We did not test for lymphoma. I asked about
getting amoxicillan with the Bioxin but she said she thinks it wont do
any good because she thinks the bad poops is because he is on his way
out and also because he had been on Baytril a couple weeks prior for
some bruising he got after his Lupron shot. He acts very happy and
normal other than the bad poops and somewhat swollen lymphs. What
should I do?? Is the vet wrong or would the amoxicillin have maybe
cleared this up all the way??? And does anyone know what the white
foamy poop is or is caused by??? Thanks for any help. Anita
