In the last few months Scout has had more tests and ultra sounds.

Here is the outcome:

First results after approx 1 month he had put on 1 pound. The Vet said this was great. His Alt's went from 606 to 130. The Vet sent away the Protein C tests and they came back in range? Perfect score.

Now today we have just received the second round of BAT tests and they came back at 198?

What is going on? Two ultra sounds and two Vets can't see a shunt, first ALT score was 606 and is now 130. He has put on over 1 pund of weight over the last month? I honestly thought everything was going to be fine & now tonight I get the news that his BAT came back at 198?

I live in Northern VA 30 miles outside of DC. The Vet has recomended I go to VA Tech to have a MRI done and the glow liquid procedure done.

My dog is full of energy and seems fine?? I'm so scared & confused?

So far I've spent over 2k on tests?

Does he have shunt? His AlT's are now in check, the protein C test came back fine, he is full of energy, pooping fine and totally acting normal?

Only thing is this BAT test results coming back really bad?

What do I do?
Asymptomatic MVD?
Why were two ultrasounds done when they aren't very accurate for this?
Have you started using Denosyl or anything?
