Bilirubin Values


Recommended Posts

Cleo's blood work has come back with elevated bilirubin levels. Can someone tell me what is acceptable for greyhounds?

 

Cleo's results were "8". According to our vet, normal is 0-5.

 

This is sort of urgent as Cleo was scheduled for a dental tomorrow morning and now our vet is suggesting liver function tests.

We feed kibble.

 

Cole's urinanalysis also showed signs of bilirubin so he had blood work done this morning.

 

Cleo is at the vet's now having a bile acid test and xrays of her liver. This is the second time her bilirubin levels have been higher so we're going to get to the bottom of it now.

 

From what I can find, her levels are not that much higher than g-h normal but we're erring on the side of caution.
