Just had a thought...would you say Roxie is very 'smushed faced', like Marcel? In other words - Marcel has a very short muzzle, so he really has that more compact face -- and I've often thought that this type of face is really such an ideal set up for reflux issues, ya know? Wondering if you've thought that too...
Thanks Ann. Roxie seems to be doing better on the medicine. She doesn't get that sick look on her face right after eating. She will play right after eating and no regurgitation so far. Roxie has a short muzzle but not as short as Pixie and Marcel. But it could be a factor. I talk to her vet tomorrow and we will decide about further liver testing. Hopefully the medicines will do the trick.
