I hope that she feels better soon. It is not fun when they are sick.

| Chloe had a rough night last night, constantly shaking, her tummy was swollen, and she was lethargic. This morning she seemed to be the same with little to no improvement, so we took another trip to the vet She took more blood, and everything came back normal. She seems to think that where she is starting to eat again it is giving her gas, wich is causing her tummy to bloat, and that the gas pains are causing her to shake. The Dr. put her on medication for gas and nausea, and she is already feeling better. Still pray that her BAT comes back normal!!! Will give and update as soon as we get the results. |

| Chloe's test results came back today and she does have a liver shunt. The doctor said her levels are really high. She didn't give me the numbers but she sent her some new food, Hills prescription diet l/d and some medicine called lactulose. Does this seem to be a good start to treat the problem that she has? She is making her an appointment with a specialist at U/T for possible surgery. Is there anything else that can treat this without surgery? Any help would be appreciated. |

| Sorry to hear that she has liver shunt...there are two yahoo support groups out there for dogs with liver shunts... I would join one if I was you... they have a ton of information.... I am currenlty fostering a maltese with liver shunt and she is having surgery next week.... if there is a shunt and it can be fixed I would reccomend having the shunt fixed...
