I picked up a copy of Purdy's last blood test results when I stopped by the vet's office. Purdy had been on Denosyl for two months because of elevated liver enzymes before this test was taken. I believe the ALT was about 123 previously, so that is coming down, but there are a number of other things out of range. The vet only seemed to be concerned about the liver enzymes, but is there anything else here that those of you who understand this stuff would be concerned about or would want to ask the vet about if it were your cat?
I'll list only the things out of range. Purdy is eight years old.
Platelet count 216 (reference 300-800)
Serum glucose 156 (reference 70-125)
Carbon dioxide 16 (reference 17-24)
Phosphorus 2.9 (reference 17-24) Edit: (reference 3.5-6.1)
Osmolality, calculated 313 (reference 270-310)
Gamma gt 0 (reference 1-8)
ALT 98 (reference 5-65)
CK 320 (reference 50-300)
Cholesterol 192 (reference 75-175)
T4, feline 1.5 (reference 1.8-4.5)
I see the glucose is elevated. How how would it have to get before he'd be considered diabetic?
