They want her to come home because she can tell she wants out of there, and i want her to know I didnt abandon her. I will know more info once the other vet calls back. I did ask the vet if she is thinking Elle has kidney or liver failure, she said she thinks she has liver failure.
If this is her ALT = 2400, which I think it is as I've never seen the other values go this high... this usually indicates a toxin of some sort. Has she been given Denamarin? (or similar liver support med) Denamarin helps to cleanse the liver and regenerate liver cells, and can protect the liver from further damage. If this were my dog, I'd get her on Denamarin ASAP.
