Blood Results For My Dog (Update)
10 Answers
finally got results back blood shows abnormal levels of Gamma GT and abnormal albumin. Tried googling info. When albumin is low the body steals protein from muscles which would explain Oscars weight-loss. The gamma gt is to do with liver enzymes. Not sure whats going on......back to the vets teatime today x

Sits for a few minutes then moves somewhere else. I feel like hes in pain but just don,t know. He has been having very loose poohs all week too! Ill see what the vet says. :-(
blood tests show abnormal Gamma GT and albumin. This means there is something going on in the liver, The albumin is to do with protein and i think this has attributed to weight and muscle loss (maybe). He has got 10 days worth of tablets (steroid, antibiotic and something for his liver). If no improvement after 10 days then its likely that there may be a liver cancer going on .....having said that the vet cant feel any lumps or bumps!!
No, absolutely not ilmb. There is a notice in the waiting room at our vets warning against giving your pets drugs meant for human consumption.
