Canine Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemia (AIHA & IMHA) - Wylie update great news!

just back from the vet at Wylies tests came back great.

for an 11 year old she acts the same as 5 years ago.
Prior to her surgery her pc was at 42, but her ALT was 600, Double edge sword witht that darn prednizone. Her splenectomy was on the 8th, it brought her PCv down to 34. Today Her counts are and Pcv 41! and ALT down to 194!!! and ALk has been in normal range all along.

My vet did not want to test her ALT for over another month, but I said No I want it done and glad I did.

Thank you for all of your thoughts! I think we were lucky that AIHA was caught early, her lowest was 32, since we had already been monitoring her ALT due to her Leptospiros diagnosis back in Sept.
