A SPEC cPL is a Canine GI Panel and involves a serum Spec cPL level, a Trypsin-like Immunocreact (TLI), Cobalamine (b12) and Folate levels. This is the true test to confirm pancreatitis or other intestinal issues.
I know it is very imtimidating, but learn what these tests mean if high or low. Pancreatitis can be a lifetime problem. A low-fat food, in addition to reading all labels for treats and not adding flax seed or fish oil can be instrumental in managing. |
You're right. His Amylase value is normal.
