We had Chloe tested because she wasn't eating well at all, and that is one of the symtoms. But since she started eating better, and has never shown any other signs, we decided to hold off on any further tests. I will be getting her tested again soon to see if there is a change in her BAT numbers.
How much does it usually cost to get the acid bile test? This must be costing Ronda a fortune with the tests, surgery and all. I wish I could help her, but I have to reserve some money for the new pair of yorkies I am adopting and it's the holidays. =( *sigh*


I'm glad that your Chloe is doing well. I hope that there's nothing wrong with her when you get her tested again.
