Re: Switching from Pergolide to Cabergoline
Thank you Dr. Kellon!
Should Qiqi have no reaction to the first injection, I will do the 2nd one already with 1 ml, so that she will be tested on July 20th. Should she have a reaction, the blood draw

Re: Vet in SE PA
Hi Barbara,
You're close enough to New Bolton that you could probably use their field service if you wanted to. Both Dr. Smith and Dr. Arbittier are excellent.

Re: "Fluffy" 25 year old QH
If it happens again check his gums right away to see if they are blue. If so it could be a heart problem.

Re: Switching from Pergolide to Cabergoline
Yes, you can use the neck. Just be sure to rotate sites and ask your vet to carefully outline the safe area for neck injections. Your testing plan sounds fine. That would be no later than end of July

Switching from Pergolide to Cabergoline
Since my 33 year old mare, Qiqi, doesn’t respond to pergolide anymore, we’ll make the switch to cabergoline this Friday, 24 hours after her last pergolide pill. Yesterday, she had her blood drawn

Re: Our pony Flirt in trouble again!!
Hi Roger,
I'm so glad my experience has motivated you! I know the pain issue is so tough to watch, but in my experience, Flirt's high insulin and need of a thoughtful trim are driving the pain right

Re: Calculating Body Weight...point of hip

Re: Our pony Flirt in trouble again!!
Hi Roger,
You said you think you may be feeding too much hay.
If you don't know how much hay you are feeding, by weight, get yourself a fish scale, or luggage scale....or similar....to weigh before

I've not been able to get Lwptin results for almost 1year. They always show "pending". It's aggravating to say the least. I have no idea what his leptin results have been the last 3 or 4 blood
