We had the TLI/Cobalamin/Folate tests done on Tuesday and the vet called with good news.

He doesn't have EPI and he said that the folate (test for SIBO?) was good. The bad news is that B12 levels are very low, low enough to warrant shots once a week for at least a while.

I don't have all the numbers tonight, will get them tomorrow when I pick up the b12 shot supplies.

Thoughts on all of this?
