It should be sent out to the lab.
If the liver enzymes are off at all and she has high bile acids, I would really think there is an issue here but maybe it is just mild MVD.
They drew blood in office and sent it by FedEx to a lab. The Lab report that they faxed me says Idexx Labs at the top. I don't know what all the test names mean, but the ones that were flagged High are: ALT(SGPT), AST(SGOT), BUN and B/C Ratio, and Lymphocytes; and one flagged Low is TC02(Bicarbonate). I suppose the vet will tell me more about these tomorrow.

Thanks for your input.
