Copper's BA test are all pre 0-10 and post between 100-120, we thought shunt at first. We had the scintigraphy done, no shunt was visibly, and we are not going to do the biopsy. He manages very well on diet change and suplements. |
that is great your pup is doing well
Jean dodds is really good at interpreting blood work and she is very conservative and she is only about 1 hr from this person. Vets all over the world consult her for blood work and vaccinations so that is why i drove to her for thyroid panel, titers and bile acids I just wanted to know why my dog was losing the hair on her neck and then wanted bile acids redone - sure enough my dog was hypothyroid and why she was losing hair on her neck
