Max's results...

I spoke to the vet today.... Max has elevated liver enzyme levels and plus 2 protien in his Urine (0 to 1 is normal), so this could be signs of devloping cushing disease or could be old age related....
Of the 2 options given we are going to re-test the protien levels in his urine in 30 days to see if there is a difference....if they are normal then we're ok....if not then we need additional tests, maybe an extensive urine test involving a needle into the bladder (scary) and possibly testing for cushings disease (somewhat pricey)....since we doesn't have many symptoms of it we are choosing to not test for it unless future testing results tell us to. So if ya can, please keep on praying or my Max, that he has a good urine test in 30 days (around April 8th).
