I am so sorry to hear of your news. Just try and stay positive if you can. My Mia has liver shunt too. They were unable to operate on hers because she has many of them and they are within her liver. You would never know that she had a problem now though. After changing her diet to hills L/D, and giving NO treats ever, she is doing great. Your baby will likely stay small (which is not a bad thing), but a very good quality of life can be achieved most of the time. Please visit livershunt.com , there you will find a wealth of information and also be able to talk online with others who are going through the exact same thing as you. I am by no means an expert on liver shunt, but have done endless research on it, so if I can be of any help please feel free to ask. I was once in your shoes and I was so grateful to so many nice people on here that took the time to answer my questions.
My prayers are with you. |
