She is on Metro for 10-14 days (I know...not great but fasting her and giving a bland diet didn't work and this is okay for her liver and pancreas, so I'm good with that). We will get the lab results tomorrow or Friday. There was no bleeding issue this time, so we are hopeful that her platelets are okay!

We had an interesting discussion about her bile acids being up possibly from pancreatitis. Nobody can say for sure but it is possible.

Ellie's diet is now 18% fat which is considered low and the vet is hesitant to have it lowered much more (Ellie's metabolism is quite fast), so we will see about the diet in the next few days I guess.
Oh Good Crystal! glad things are looking up!!! I was thinking of you both today!
