Default Liver Enzymes are through the roof!

A week and half ago I posted a thread (http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/sic...g-surgery.html) about Jax. After vomiting blood we rushed him to an ER vet and after an xray showed abnormalities in his intestines they figured he had swallowed something and kept him over night. After a successful barium test they concluded it could be something he would pass. He never passed anything so they concluded that it was an intestinal infection and put him on antibiotics. After a week and half of continued lethargy and vomiting he was brought to the vet again this morning and after some tests they saw that his liver enzymes were through the roof. Highest "normal" levels of ATL are 250 and his levels were at 1,000. My mom then brought him to a specialist and they are running some tests now. My heart is breaking for my little guy. He's been through so much.

I've done some research and there are so many things it could be that I just can't get myself to speculate anymore because, being the pessimist that I am, my mind just keeps going through all the worst case scenarios.
