The lab is Antech in NY - that's where we do all our blood. Your vet seems on top of this. Shunts and Microvascular Dysplasia MVD are common in yorkies. If she's been healthy all this time, she may only have MVD which is medically managed by a diet change and sometimes supportive supplements. I hope you get good news on the BAT results next week.
