The problem having the scintigraphy done elsewhere is that you do have to put them to sleep and if they indeed do have a shunt, you may run into problems if that facility is not prepared and accustomed to LS babies. It was comforting to go to a place (UT) that does these over and over each day with such tiny babies. Lola is doing wonderful, she also had MVD, but is like a different dog now that we repaired her shunt. UT definitely saved Lola's life! |
when i called dr broom they said they do not usually have to put to sleep or sedate for scintigraphy but i guess if dog is real active maybe they have to mildly sedate
