My Yorkie is only 3# and she is almost 8 mo old and appears to be fine. We found elevated ALT when we first tried to spay her at 6 months. first time it was about 123 then retested couple weeks later and increased to 213 and he put her on some vitamins and after 2 weeks retested and she is now 260. She has had the Bile Acid test and it was negative and Ultrasound that did not show anything. So I asked him about the Protein C test and he did not know what it is. Can you give me any more info where I can show him?
Is there another name for the Protein C test? My vet does not know what that is and I have not been able to find it on any web sites or info pages.
Thanks,
Tina
