Hi Sandra

Do you have a Case History for Mike?  If not, please join ECHistry8 and give us some background volunteers can refer to.

He may need to go back to training on the ground to bring him up to where he can be ridden.  There are a number of things that could be going on from arthritis to lack of vitamin e to trim.

Glad he's doing better on the pergolide.  I hope you asked for references from your chiro as to why to take him off the drug.

Input please.
