All,
Thank you much for all your input and encouragement. We did take our boy in for ($1,200) a battery of tests, sonograms, blood and urine, pretty much the whole 9 yards and all came back in the normal ranges except the amount of protein in his blood..... not super high but wondering now, diet wise, about suggestions for diet modification? I have increased the amount of food I have been giving him by ~20% and there seems to be some slight gains but I will know more in a month.
Thanks for all your support!
