She was having a hypoglycemic episode and I took her to the ER vet and her blood work was off. She had had some other tummy issues but no signs of a liver shunt. The ultrasound showed no external shunt so they went to the liver biopsy. The specialist said after the liver biopsy results that none of her previous symptoms were related and her MVD was very very mild and needed no treatment. She has blood work done every year and so far everything has been normal. If you have any questions just ask.
