Please let me know what his tests say. Yes, if I can think of the name I'll let you know. Did his Dr say where the blood supply was rerouteing to?  Remar

There is a name for this but I'm so sorry, it's not coming to my mind right now. Have they done liver tests on him yet. And if so, what were his numbers?  Remar
