Re: Update on Flirt
It's safe to continue the metformin. It's not doing anything for his insulin but may well be helping with pain. I'd continue it.
There have been no formal safety studies on acetaminophen. I worry

Re: Winter coat already?
Yes, it's common with PPID but it may mean your pergolide dose is too low. Check ACTH.

Re: Dr. Kellon: Should Ike be on Metformin?
Does the Jiaogulan help the soles (depth) grow faster, or just the rest of the hoof? I'm fine with trimming more often if we're achieving the goal of increasing hoof depth.
He is also taking Rhodiola

Re: Dr. Kellon: Should Ike be on Metformin?
Hi Julie,
Thanks for adding the pix.
Agree that Ike should remain in boots the majority of the time he isn't on a soft, yielding surface as the soles are quite thin. There is some sinking on the rads,
