It's not terribly uncommon for this to occur after surgery in these little ones. We do annual bloodwork (no BAT) but Dr. Tobias told me that Lola's bile acids will never be normal. She said we needed to be careful with her proteins, but Lola is not on any meds and the surgery was 5+ years ago. Lola is doing great. Hopefully this is the case with your baby. I think University of TN is going to give you the best care and advice possible. Keep doing what you're doing - sounds like she already feels a little better! Good luck - I'll say prayers for your little one!
hi thank you may i ask how long after your sugery did u stop with the meds & how high is your blood test now
