he had MRI - showed brain infection - and a high liver count - about 40 - rather than normal 15 - for a liver shunt they say it should be about 100 - but he is having the liver test tomorrow - to see if it's a shunt - but he has no energy - he can't STAND - he acts like he has ALD - like a rag doll - he is eating, he is on steroids and ampicylin by IV - I am dying inside - I love my yorkie so much - I need him to get better -does anyone know what this can be? the doctors are all clueless.. help if you know anything |
