Yes 104 is high and it could be a shunt, but it could also be MVD.
Roxy's first BAT was Pre: 43 and Post: 100.9
We had a U/S done too. It showed a normal shape and normal size liver. Unfortunately, U/S are only about 60% accurate in determining a shunt. So what will happen is they *may* see a large shunt and direct you for surgery, or they *may* see nothing at all, BUT, they will say that doesn't mean she doesn't have a shunt, we just didn't see it, then they will direct you to do a liver biopsy.
