 Close by, in your shoes
After elevated enzymes when her luxating patellas were fixed in July, the surgeon told me to have Gracie (now 11 months) retested in a few weeks. Those numbers were still high last week, so we did bile acids and they were no better. She is having ultrasound on Friday. I am glad to see encouraging responses to your questions because I have been quite anxious about her. Let's hope they both do well!
Gracie is pretty much asymptomatic, so I hope we are catching this early and she will not have lasting damage. The comment about the coat was interesting--hers is thin and wavy-totally unlike her parents, so maybe that will improve with treatment. A long as she is healthy, though, I will just keep it cut short and cute.
Please keep us updated, and if you want to talk to someone local, please PM me and we can trade notes about what is going on.
If you need a surgeon, we were very pleased with the one who fixed Gracie's patellas, and the specialty center was fabulous. |
