I just got off the phone with the vet that did the tests today. He said to give Harley 2 more hours and see if he becomes more responsive, if not he wants me to take him in tonight.

Wow, bile acid testing should always be done first because if they are normal, you don't need to do a liver biopsy (and you still don't NEED to do one). The kind of liver biopsy they do with the needle/ultrasound isn't really a good way because they can't get a big enough piece of the liver.
I think this vet is doing things backwards.
I would've done the ultrasound because of the stones though.
