I meant to say you did not do the wrong thing, not I did not do the wrong thing.

Anyway, that is exactly what I was saying.

Lets just take a scenario:
Samie has a shunt or MVD.
Actigall helps and lowers bile acids.
You recheck bile acids and they are normal, so you suspect nothing is wrong...
Now there is a hidden problem that is covered up with the Actigall.
Hopefully this is not the case.
That is why I don't like it though.
Please, if you decide to take her off do it under the supervision of a vet. If your vet says she needs it, maybe she does. If it were my dog, I would use Denosyl or Vetri and skip the Actigall until shunt and MVD are ruled out, then I would consider it to get the bile acids down. This needs to be a decision between you and your vet though.
