I do not know about liver shunts but I do know about dealing with doggie seizures....this is managable!! There is a wonderful website with great information and real help from actual people. I will look up that site if you'd like the info-just pm me and I'll go find it in my emails.
The medicine we give Lexxi is very inexpensive and we have resorted to liquid because she is so hard to give pills too, and liquid is more expensive and I think i still only spend maybe $30 on that bottle, maybe once a month.
Seizures are scary - it makes me so sad to watch, but I'm telling you, they can be under control. And my baby clusters, which means she usually cannot stop but luckily they have not happend THAT much.
