After reading the sticky from May 2009 regarding anesthesia protocol, I am a bit nervous about Daisy having to undergo the mask anesthesia, which the vet said we would have to use due to her liver issues. I am hoping this is not as controversial as it was in 2009 and it is safer. She needs a loose tooth pulled and a dental cleaning. Does anyone have any good info on this or a good web site that I can look at? My vet told the mask anesthesia was safe.

The good news is that Daisy's new blood test showed her liver enzymes were significantly improved over her last one 30 days ago. Her ALT was only 10 units over the normal range. She will need to stay on a prescription diet and we are phasing her down on Denamarin and having a follow-up blood test in 60 days.

Thanks to everyone who prayed for her. I was so worried about her. She is now acting like her old normal self. She is sleeping peacefully through the night...what a relief. Now I just have to get through this dental procedure.
