It seems like more vets who are in the Southern
U.S. mention things like second adrenal gland
involvement than ones in areas which get less
sunlight (not only length but intensity of blue
and green wavelengths)a


**This is an interesting point. I rarely see a second gland become
hyperplastic or neoplastic after removal of one affected gland, and I am in the
Northeast. Not saying I don't see it, I certainly do, but I would estimate it
to be less than 30 percent recurrence, even in those ferrets not given any
medical treatment (Lupron, melatonin) after the first gland is removed.**
