Can you please pray for my Evey?
 

Please please pray for my Evey - my husband took her to the vet because I noticed her urine is a dark yellow and seemed like she's lost weight. He just called me at work and said they couldn't get a urine sample but took blood and the vet is concerned- he said her eyes are jaundiced and that yes, she has lost some weight. my husband said something about problems with her liver or kidney. I can't remember exactly what he said - I'm so scared right now. She is 9 years old and my best girlfriend. The vet is hoping to find out something by tomorrow or Monday. I was hoping it was a urinary infection but the vet seems to think its something else. I love her so much - she has always been so healthy and I can only think of one time that she was sick in her whole life.

Oh honey I will keep Evey in my prayers. Poor little sweetie.

I am sending prayers to you and Evey. Warm hugs from me and Lucy.

Evey may have a liver shunt
 

Thanks to everyone for your prayers and please keep praying for her. The vet called yesterday and please bear with me as this is all so foreign to me. He said he got back part of her blood test and he says she has something wrong with the liver. He said we needed to put her on liver diet, by science diet, absolutely no vitamin C, low dose anitbiotics and prednisone. He used words like Sam E, unitisol, actigol (i'm sure I'm spelling these wrong). He said he wanted to send her to Springfield to a specialist and have an ultrasound and a biopsy done. So i spent yesterday and this morning read up on stuff and I'm thinking the vet thinks she has a liver shunt? Only he didnt say the word liver shunt. But he described it as a vessel outside her liver that wasn't working properly. He never said anything about a bile acide test or ammonia challenge test- shouldn't she have those done before an ultrasound or biospy? At least that is what I am reading. If anyone can give me any resources to read on this, I would really appreciate it. And food - what food is best? Is the scince diet really the best? My husband and I will figure this out financially and I don't know what to expect. All I know is that I CANNOT lose Evey, not like this. She is my precious girl - I have 4 yorkies and she is my only girl and I am so in love with her. I just need information and like I said, please bear with me and please do not abbreviate things as this is all so new to me. The vet is having to send out to get an antibiotic made for her- I think thats what the utisol is and his tablets come in 250 mg and she only needs 25-50 mg of it. We are going to use the antibiotics and prednisone to stabilize her and of course this new diet until we can gather the money for the ultrasound - but should I request that a bile acid test be done? And I read something about a protein C test? What is that? I am filled with so many questions and am totally lost here. PLEASE HELP WITH ANY KNOWLEDGE YOU HAVE. And please pray for me little girl.

I will keep praying for your little evey....I am not much help but there will be lots on here who can help you out. Good luck and keep us posted.

Hugs

Prayers for your baby.. I hope everything turns out well for you .. YOu have a great support sytem with all of us... I hope you feel it!

Praying for little Evey............

I am so sorry that little Evey is sick. We will be praying for her and for those who love this little girl. I'm sorry I don't know anything about these symptoms but hopefully, those who are familiar with it will see this and give you information. Please update us as often as you can.

Good luck! I hope everything turns out ok. Let us know how she is holding up!

I will continue praying.I am sending them along with tons of hugs your way.

You might post a new thread with the title "possible liver shunt". That way people who have experience will see it and post. I know there's a support group, but can't remember where right now. PM Ladymom and ask who she knows with information. She seems to know quite a bit about it. The same for My Fair Lacy.

Also, do a search on this site for liver shunt. Good luck and we're keeping you and your little one in our prayers. Hugs!

I'm sorry to hear your news. Hoping everything will work out well.
