Have you ever came upon a case like this where the blood work came out so well but the BAT came out elevated AND the dog had NO symptoms for several weeks?
All cases are different and if I felt that I should continue testing then I would but I just don't think at this point I am going to go any further. I may ask for an x-ray because that has never been done.
You are doing what you feel is best, but you are not doing what Dr. Myers thought was best. I manage my dog with diet alone, but she does NOT have a single shunt, was much older at diagnosis, and her FIRST plan was dietary management and not surgery. Please do not use Daisy's case, what limited info you know of it, to compare to Lucy for her sake. Best wishes.
