LS normally causes a 3 fold increase in the ALT, most times followed by the AST rising. Anything over that, which is around 300-350, is more than likely caused by a toxin, which is anything foreign put into the body, either drugs, any vaccines, and anything by ingestion. Tink's ALT went to 600+ after she ate rancid grease. TLC's pup's ALT went to over 2000 (unknown reason), Madraga's Kiwi's ALT went to over 800+ after having all her vaccines and a Proheart vac all in one day. Just trends I'm seeing on YT.
Mainly the old one, but can skyrocket if too many vacs are given together, which happens alot with the Lepto vac.
I think the new lepto vac is okay (not absolutely sure and JMHO) as long as it is given separately and at least 4 weeks apart from any other vaccines. It will still need to be given every 6-8 months to be effective, and is not 100% preventative of getting Lepto, but can lessen the severity of the disease if exposed. |
You made the statement. I simply asked where you got the information. No reason for me to ask my vet such a question.
Trends on YT? You consider that research data?
Again you are claiming skyrocketing liver values after vaccines...where are you getting this from?
And, lastly, you have made broad sweeping claims about the lepto vaccine yet now you say you don't know.
Bottom line is that I believe now that you are making things up and that frightens me for people who read your posts. While you may feel things are not right about certain vaccines and treatments, I think you should stick with telling people that it is your feelings and not real data. You are intelligent and you write well...that will tend to give people the idea that what you are saying is fact. Surely you would not want someone to follow your lead and not vaccinate and then lose their pup to a disease?? I believe you mean well..I just think you need to think about that. Just my humble opinion.
