Hello, I'm new here and looking for any info or advice. About 15 days ago my cat Cecil had a issue were he wasn't eating or drinking at all. So we went to the vet for x-ray and bloodwork and the vet said Cecil's alt level was high. (Normal is 12-130). It turns out his alt level was 2,438. Is that even possible? My vet didn't seem surprised but everywhere I look for info I cannot find any that suggest it is common or crazy high. At that time Cecil was acting as his normal self aside from the fact he didn't eat that day we went to vet. He has been on three meds since. Denamarin, amoxi, and metronidazole.
Currently Cecil is eating, playing, and seems fine but im worried that once he's off meds problems may return. All other tests that day were fine, just the alt was off. Vet said its a infection and after meds he should be fine. Anyone have or hear of an alt test that high before? Could it be something more serious then a infection? Any help or info is greatly appreciated by Cecil and I. Thanks.
