Subject: [ferrethealth] anemia
To: ferrethealth@yahoogroups.com

I just received the results of Fergusons blood work and my vet says he is anemic. Ferguson also has adrenal. I do not understand the results maybe someone can help. If adrenal and anemia run hand in hand would a vitamin supplement be helpful? I just hope the results of these tests aren't leaning towards insulinoma.
