UPDATE: PT starting tomorrow morning. We will be starting off slow. Tomorrow is her first day without Dilantin as she is going to 7 final doses of every other day. I also get her lab results back. My vet said he woud recommned the amino acids mentioned here (thanks YTers!) in order to support her liver. He was slightly upset that we didn't know she was in liver failure although he has the utmost faith in MSU (and so do we). He is extremely glad they are weaning the meds and said the Prednisolone could be affecting her liver as well. She is such a happy little dog and never lets on that she's sick. My vet said the 2 days she vomitted were likely "sick liver" days but she is doing well now. She is 5# but he just wants us to feed her more of her regular food. We are doing 3X day now (plus treats).
I'll let everyone know what happens tomorrow after PT and the blood results.
P.S. I have a great idea for YT to make money for those on here that can't afford medical care for their yorkie babies...does anyone know who I should correspond with? My idea is sort of a donation thing when a yorkie passes (we can donate in honor of that baby) but more so for threads like mine. I could submit a photo of Cali and shirts could be made with a saying (mine would be "Team Cali" since you wonderful posters came up with that). Anyway, people here could buy a shirt and the proceeds could go to an account for those in need when their babies are ill. I would buy shirts with all of these beautiful yorkies from this forum for sure. What do all of you think? Just a thought...Thanks!
