That would be nice.
It is frustrating when the latest and greatest test is out and is cheap, but vets don't use it. If they think that it isn't reliable that's one thing, but we pay big money to see internists. They certainly better know what a Protein C Test is. Even Ellie's regular vet brought the Protein C test up the other day to me. Now if she knows about it and doesn't specialize in liver issues, I don't see why we should have to explain to internists what it is.
Ellie's internist never brought it up either.
