The head pressing is just one thing that is done with liver shunts. Does your little
girl circle around in a room, like she is not comfortable? Is she a picky eater?
Throw up sometimes? Drink alot, which will make her pee alot. My little girl had
a liver shunt. She didn't have many problems, she was picky eating, drink alot, peed
alot. Finally she started the circling, she would walk around the living room, lay down
for a minute then do it over and over. If you notice your baby doing any of these
things. Go to your vet, and request a bile acids test. If you have any questions I
would be happy to help.
