> I know this is off topic, so would appreciate direction to the proper forum or web sites for information. We have noticed our 10 yr old Schnauzer losing weight and energy. Unable to jump on the bed ect. Had some labs drawn at the Vets. WBCs around 24,000 (Norm up to 17,000) Alkaline Phosphotate 2700 (Norm up to 150) Bilirubin 1.3 (Norm .6), albumin low, Protein low, globulin normal, urine dilute with spec gravity 1005 (Norm 1025 - 1030) with protein spilling in urine. glucose 250. XRay showed her spleen enlarged. Tues we will have a Bile Acids test. I asked for a gut opinion and he just said obstruction or sludge in the Bile ducts which will lead to Liver damage. Treatment would consist of starting Antibiotics, a drug called Actigal that sounds like a Doggy Lipitor it inhibits bile Acid and Cholesterol absorbtion and a LD diet I assume that stands for Liver Disease. I plan to begin Colloidal Silver in her water dish, Silimarin and continue to research, any suggestions ? =================== Homeopathy. Dogs respond well to this (I can't recommend anyone, though). Also, when humans do a liver cleanse a standard item is Epsom salts to drink, to open the bile duct. I don't know how this would translate to a dog, though, the stuff is vile to drink ;-O If the bile duct is obstructed there may be parasites. Colloidal silver is great but won't affect more than single-celled microbes. Maybe you could do a parasite cleanse too. Good luck.
