Sorry you are going through this. When Cali Bile Acd tests were high the specialist I went to said that usually scores less than 100 are found to be MVD (no surgical cure) and over 100 can indicate a external shunt. Since your baby's test results were so close I think I would want to do more testing before going to surgery unless other indications show a definite shunt. Cali's score was in the 90's and after a ultrasound showed no external shunt we went to a liver biopsy that was done when she was spayed. The liver biopsy showed a very mild case of MVD. This is just my thoughts and experience and in no way am I advising you on the medical care of your baby. I hope it works out for you.
