What should I do to help him, would different food or medicine be helpful. I have talked with others with yorkies with microvascular dysplasia who have bile acid counts between 75-100. My Timmys is so much higher and I am worried.f anyone could help me with information, I would GREATLY appreciate it! |
Buster's BAT was 155, not nearly as high as your Timmy's. He is not on any medication but he does eat Purina EN. He did not have a biopsy only the ultra sound which I have heard can't determine if there is a shunt. The vet at Texas A&M Vet Clinic made the diagnosis of no shunt which was good to hear. He seems to be doing ok. He eats a bit more than he did but he has not vomited in a while. I would keep doing what the vet has recommended as I'm not sure if there is much else that can be done. It's tough wondering if there is anything else you can do for them.
