In August I did the BAT for both of them:

Roxy
Pre = 43 and Post 100.9

TJ
Pre = 5 and Post = 43

In Sept. I did a full blood panel on Roxy along with clotting times and urine analysis. We also did an ultrasound. Everything was normal and the u/s showed a normal sized and shape liver.

In Oct. I retested both for CBC and BAT. Both their CBC was normal
Retest BAT were:

Roxy
Pre = 10 and Post = 64

TJ
Pre = 67 and Post = 21.5

At this point, they show NO symptoms of any kind. They are eating a special homemade diet. They get supplements: Hepatosupport, Vetri DMG, Vitamin E, Fish Oil and Egg Shells for Calcium - daily.

I will retest the BAT is 3 months. I do not plan on doing any further testing...unless the BAT go above and beyond.
