Great news!

Tucker had another blood test today and his alt is back down to 42.

I'm so happy and so was the vet, she called me tonight at 7pm to let me know the results and find out exactly what I'm giving him and how often.

Since his enzymes went up after taking him off of the Ursodiol before he'll stay on that and now we're reducing his Prednisone to once every third day. He'll have another blood test in a month so I'm keeping my fingers crossed that the numbers stay low.

I really hope that at some point he'll be off the pred all together. The potential side effects worry me quite a bit.

I had a feeling that we'd have good results today based on the way Tucker's been acting lately. Goofy ... that's my boy! He's so silly and sweet and just cracks me up. I just love this boy so much.
