I agree with everything Crystal wrote. The supplements, meds, and food. A scintigraphy test is the way they found Chance's liver shunt. I think that will tell if
the shunt is outside the liver or inside the liver. Liver shunts on the outside I think, are
fixable with surgery. If they are inside a think they are treated with supplements, low
protein food, and Lactulose. But this is not a death sentence, but if you don't find out if it is a shunt, and treat it. It will probably short the life of your baby.
Chance had her liver shunt repair at U.T. by Dr. Karen Tobias, she is world known for
liver shunt repair and studies. The web site that was posted so many times is a great
place to find good information, I belong to it, and Chance's story is on LiverShunt.net
