Default Liver Shunt ?

I have a new yorkie puppy that I love with all my heart. Yesterday she got sick..wabbly, lethargic...thought it was hypoglycemia...gave karo syrup, nothing changed, went to vet. Liver enzymes high, BAT post 68. My vet thinks she has liver shunt. I am devasted. All the research I have done looks so expensive. I live in South Carolina. Does anyone have any help?? My vet has placed her on Hills LD canned food, Bactrim and Denamarin. Thanks and and advice will be greatly appreciated. Before yesterday no problems. She has a great appetite, energy, no head rubbing, no diarrhea, normal bowel movements, she has gained 5 ounces in 2 weeks. Yesterday her weight was 1.9 pounds. She did receive her second round of shots 2 weeks ago.
