Default Liver conditions

Hello Yorkie Talk members,

I need some insight on Yorkie liver issues. I have a Yorkie puppy that has recently showed what I thought was hypoglycemia symptoms. After a visit to the vet, we are now looking at possible liver disease. After reading tons of material about liver disease the more confused I am. My dog shows signs of hypoglycemia more than anything, but after a bile acid test, the vet said that there are liver issues and ultrasound is need to further identify what is wrong. My puppy is 11 months old and never had any major signs of liver disease until now. Does any one has had similar experience? Vet is looking into portosystemic shunt or microvascular problems. According to my reading, his symptoms are not really in line with any of these two conditions. Any help is appreciated
