Just to chime in....I think I've heard that it would be a good idea to wait for the spay until you know if it's LS or not. That way, if it is LS, they can do the spay and LS surgery at the same time. If it's not, then they can do the biopsy (which should be 3 samples, each at a different site and not just 1 sample, right Crystal??) at the same time as the spay. Maybe that's not exactly right...Ellie May, Yorkieluv, and Ladymom could tell you for sure.
I've been reading this entire thread today.....just got my baby's BAT back.
Resting SBA = 243.0 (Reference Range: <13)
Post-Prandial SBA = 72.6 (R.R.: < 25)
I'm a little puzzled why the Resting is so high....she hadn't had anything to eat since the night before and they drew the labs at 7am???
Again, her 1st set of labs on 10/31 came back with ALT = 302...essentially, everything else (BUN, Creatinine, ALKPH, etc...) was normal.
Her 2nd set of labs on 11/17 came back with ALT = 347....again with essentially everything else normal.
So, what do the experts think?? What should be my next step? Protein C? I haven't done a urinalysis since it hasn't been recommended to me AND since her BUN and Creatinine have been normal.
Should I get her started on a low protein diet? I'm leaning toward yes....
