My horse gets extreme diarrhea off and on during the year. I swear it's the time of the year or when he's been wormed or vaccinated. The last two times he had it, I took him in to the vet. He was

I use MVP Magnesium 3000 from SmartPak. It's a powder, but they do have a 5000 formula that is a pellet. I've never had any trouble with the horse refusing either one. Good luck! Cheers Allana and

Hi Sarah, When I first tested one of my PPID/IR boys his ACTH came back at 1088 so you aren't the only one who has seen a heart-stoppingly high reading. The faster you start the Prascend the better

Hi Tori, Glad that Sunrise is doing well. Agree with your vet here. Bloodwork in springtime will give you a good baseline on how your horse is doing at the time of year when the ACTH is at its

Hi All, So I finally managed to get my mares ACTH blood results........they are scarily high and tested in Liphook Equine Hospital in the Uk (I am based in Ireland) Unfortunately the vet nurse sent

Shari, I would be interested in the J herb and the CTB. Perhaps I could make a donation to a charity in honor of Snickers in exchange? I can also pay for the shipping. Pam/Butters/Frosty/Story 12/10

Hi Karen, So sorry to hear that Serrano is having a bad spell. Just wondering about this seizure or whatever it was. How soon after he received his dose of Prascend did you clean his eye and notice

Karen, My tiny(300#)pony, Stormy is one of those. I have chased her ACTH since I joined the group in 4-12...so feel your frustration. I recently increased her dose to 6.5mg (compounded perg. caps)

Hello all: My horse, Surprise, has been doing well for the last couple years and I have not had to post. My vet has let me go without bloodwork for last 2 years and now insists I get some done on

I haven't change anything in her diet, I have the same hay. For the Insulin resistant condition, she is doing great, she lost a lot of weight, we can start to see slightly her ribs, she is not lame,

It's going to be much easier to do this Karen, with compounded pergolide vs Prascend. My guy is currently on 8 mg. Hopefully your blood went to Cornell. Like Jaini says, don't despair. You can get

My horse had a molar problem that turned into a sinus infection with symptoms of a foul discharge from one nostril. The tooth was removed but the sinus infection was very difficult to treat. After 2

Due to the recent passing of my friend, Snickers that was being treated for cushing's disease I have a recently filled prescription of Pergolide 2 mg capsules, count 89 that I wish to give away. I

Hi, Karen - don't despair. Many horses are on much higher doses - check out the database here: http://pets.groups.yahoo.com/group/EquineCushings/database?method=reportRows&tbl=11 I have one on 7.5,

Hi, Shari - your reply went to the group and to me as well. I am sure someone can use the pergolide, jiaogulan and ginger - thank you so much for wanting to send it on. Please take care of yourself

Jaini, I thank you for the thoughtful note that you sent to me regarding the loss of my friend Snickers. I'm new to this type of communication in a group discussion so please let me know if this

Hi, I am sad to say that Serrano's ACTH test from last week was 60.4... Very high at this time when it should be low. And he has not been doing well with gas colic, a possible mini seizure, lameness
