Am seeing a Cocker S/F 16 years old with a 2 year history of PU/PD and elevated SAP (from 1179 to 708 and then ALT was started to rise slightly to 105 from 36). Tested for Cushing's- inconclusive. Stated her on Standard Process Hepatic and Whole Body Support in addition to adding trace mineral and acupuncture and her liver enzymes are back to normal. Also have her on the homecooked diet. She is feeling much better, no longer PU/PD, but continues to lose weight! Her body condition score now is about 3/9, no palapble masses. Would you add Bu Gan Tang or something else for this situation? Her muscles are very tight and she is a little irritable, too (what Cocker isn't, though) :)
Thanks!
