He has seen so many Yorkie cases and has studied their diseases and has worked with and sits on the American Board of Veterinary Practitioners with Dr Center. Biopsy will be done after 10 days if this is not working. So far I see such an improvement. Runny stool or Diarrhea is a common sign of this disease. Blood test may show low blood protein levels but not always. This is a common disease for Yorkies and they lose protein. They need zero fat and high quality protein. This is a slow process to figure out what she can and cant eat. This week plain rice next week throw in lean ground turkey if that works then may green beans for a week. So far so good. I hope this thread will help someone who is having the same symptoms my Lola has.
