I just had bloodwork done on one of my ferrets, a 5-year-old male named Chocolate Moose. My vet is concerned because two of his liver parameters are high: SGPT is 430 compared with a normal range of 10-280 and alkaline phosphatase is 56 compared with a normal range of 15-45. The vet at Antech, the firm that did the blood analysis, is recommending X-rays to see if his liver is enlarged. However, X-rays are expensive. I decided instead to treat Chocolate Moose with amoxicillin for two weeks to rule out an infection. So I have some questions: 1. How worried should I be about this? 2. Is it worthwhile to take X-rays? Will they tell me anything useful? 3. Are there other steps I should take? Thank you in advance for any help you may have to offer.
