They had a hard time getting her to eat her food and had to give her something else- I am not sure what. She is currently on the soft L/D mixed with hard L/D diet. I give her a little cottage cheese and sweet potatoes at times to get her to take the lactulose.
My vet is looking into prices and more information from UW Madison for further testing- If we go that route. I really hate to put her through such invasive procedures as she is only 3 1/2 pounds. I NEED ADVICE PLEASE! Lilly is just shy of two, and is our baby!! Anyone have any guidance? Thanks |
honestly if she was mine and she has NO symptoms and never has then i would just do low protein diet and further test if symptoms occur - if they have mvd the bats will always be abnormal but your baby is below 100 and no symptoms so most likely mvd
