These are test results:

IDEXXGHPidexx General Chem Profile:
ALB 3.6 g/dL
ALlKP 40 U/L
ALT 41 U/L
AMYL 515 U/L
BUN 22 mg/dL
CA 10.5 mg/DL
CHOL 111 mg/dL
CREA 0.7 mg/dL
GLOB 2.5
GLU 99
PHOS 4.7
TBIL 0.1
TP 6.1 g/dL
I can post the CBC next.
where is the lipase and inhouse spec cpli? the amylase is not that high but i do not put too much credence in amylase and lipase -- what about triglycerides? actually really irrelevant your dog is in pain get him to your internal medicine specialist and ask about purina ha food for future diet for both pancreas and liver shunt. Also you may need to home cook dr dodds liver cleansing diet if this does not work -- sorry to be so pushy but your dog has alot going on and my experience is best in the hands of a specialist at this point as that is what i had to do to save my dogs life or he would have died at vets - due to pancreas and liver issues this is nothing to mess with and is very serious or i would not be so persistent. Did you call your ims when your dog was diagnosed? From now on anything serious just go to your ims as you can go direct at least you can here
