Ellie's bile acids were post: 47.
This is when her ALT was elevated.
She went on Denosyl, vitamin E and low protein diet (started with Royal Canin...made her itchy so we switched to Dr. Dodds liver cleansing diet with egg instead of fish).
Retested bile acids one month later.
This time the post bile acids were 15 and the ALT was down to 43.
She stayed on the Denosyl and this diet for awhile.
She was spayed and her liver biopsy came back okay.
She came off the Denosyl around this time and her protein intake increased. I talked to a nutritionist and was now using a homemade diet with 24% protein (chicken). This started in early November sometime.
We were pretty happy that the bile acids came back down and the biopsy was good but the bile acids still needed to be rechecked to make sure everything was okay.
They were rechecked in mid January and Ellie's post was 106.
Her ALT hasn't been checked since it was 43.
We are going to start Denosyl again and go from there since the specialist doesn't have an answer........
