If it continues to be higher than it should be, we will start out at K-State with tests before she sends us to U of T. Just wanted to let you know that Chipper hasn't been vomiting anymore although he had the trembles on Sunday. Turned out I hadn't given him his Metacam that I was supposed to. She said that it is painful for the doggie to have the gallbladder dump so much fat. Don't really understand that all, but the meds helped. I was panicking for a moment. Thank you, again, for all the information. ~Joanne~ |
??? metacam - was that given before the bats? If so that will skew the test and those numbers were not high at all and no need for further testing it is clearly mvd if not over 100 on bats and if your pup had any medication prior to doing bats that will elevate the bats as well. I need to refresh my memory and will go back and re-read but curious why metacam as that affects the liver and kidneys
she gave the dog metacam bc the gall bladder was dumping fat ??? Ok this does not sound right to me at all
