Something similar happened to Ellie.
Tested as precaution.
Post was 47.
Went on Denosyl, vitamin e, low protein and antibiotics.
Retested and post was 15.
Liver biopsy (done during spay) was normal.
Went off Denosyl and went to 24% protein.
A couple months later post was up to 106.
A vaccine was given about 45 days before the 106 reading.
Don't know if that's what caused it.
She is back on Denosyl. Ultrasound was normal.
So, would your vet be comfortable taking her off the Vetri and low protein and retesting in a month?
I wouldn't vaccinate too close to then.
Has she been spayed?

Oh no, she had it done 2 separate times. One was done in Aug 07 and the 2nd one was done on 2/21/08. The 1st time one was only PRE cz we didnt stay there for POST.

The BAT that was dont on 2/21/08 (2nd time, retest just to make sure) was normal.

She isnt spayed yet. He said to go ahead and vaccinate her but not all at once. He also said to do another BAT in 2myths (3rd BAT) to make sure.. I mean this was the 2nd BAT she has had in 6 myths. Now he wants to do a 3rd one, omega I dont think she has enough blood :eeg: ...

The dr didnt tell me to keep her on a low protein diet and tell me to put her on those supes. I had gotten the info from the net, like people like u all, who have experience and help.

BTW this is a new dr that I just went on 2/21/08.. There werent too many drys who had a knowledge about LS/MVD. I couldnt goto a dr who knew less than customers.
