Ellie's bile acids went up to 106 (don't know why) and her ALT was 118 but at last check was 43.
If a blood panel showed irregularities it would be one thing, but it doesn't show liver function specifically which a BAT would.
I guess this is something everyone has to decide for themselves but I'd hate to see a Yorkie with a normal blood panel be put under and end up reacting to the drugs used.
