She had a liver biopsy when spayed and they determined she had mild MVD. I have kept her on a lower protein diet and she has done very well. She is going to be 8 in June. I know her internal medicine specialist told me that usually bile acids over 100 are more likely to indicate a liver shunt and under 100 to be MVD. I would have him retested and take him to a internal medicine vet if the levels are still above normal. I hope it is just a fluke and he recovers fully from this episode. |
Thanks Patti! i'll keep you posted. We will be returning to the vet on Tuesday of next week
