Remember elevated levels do not always mean liver shunt...what it means is there is a problem with his liver function. Nothing will have been diagnosed until further testing. |
This is VERY true. The Protein C will tell you for sure. Levels can be up from a number of reasons...one your high protein food! To do an ultrasound it is almost impossible to see a shunt and is a waste of your money. Go for the Protein C test! You will know for SURE then!
