I would suggest getting your little one on an appropriate food. I feed Paisley the above and she is almost 3 weeks post her Liver Shunt surgery.
Paisley is just about 10 moths old and she had the bile acid test, then the scintigraphy, and then we went to the University of Tennessee. We are also in Texas, but it made more sense for us to go to UT. Our estimated fee was a lot less than anything here and since they are the best place for liver shunt surgery I felt it was best for Paisley.
Our total for her l/s surgery, spay, dew claw removal and pulling of some baby teeth was $1300. I couldn't believe the total was so much less than our estimated cost over the phone.
I wish you the best and will look for an update.
