for now they have most likely ruled out liver shunt. she has been to both my vet and madison vet hospital, at madison they only did blood work and ultra sound and didnt see a shunt so they believe its mvd but didnt want to do any other tests on her because she is to weak. this week my vet did do a protien c test but we havent heard back from them yet. she is on LD food amoxi drops and lactulose along with vetri dmg and hepato support and nurti cal i dont think i can give her meat she is only allowed 2 grams of protien a day, although we have uped that a tiny bit to see if she will perk up a bit.
