Pictures can go in your photo album on the case history sub group. That teff would need to be soaked to be suitable as the ESC+starch is right at 10%. Do you know if that test as well as the other

Is there any way you can have the hay soaked for all feedings? It can be done ahead and then allowed to dry. In addition to getting the trim addressed that's one thing I would change ASAP. Keep in

Thank you Kirsten! I have requested a copy of her oral sugar test from the vet so can hopefully share results soon. I have spoken to a couple vets in our area about running insulin and glucose bloods

Hi Mikela, Thanks for getting the photos up. Unfortunately, part of Zahr's issue is that his trim needs a lot of work. His toes are still way too far out ahead of where they need to be. His HPA is

Hi Sherry, The May hay analysis is the current one, yes, and Zahr's hay is soaked for his feedings at bring in and night check but not for the AM or midday feedings. I'll get current trim photos up

Hi Mikaela, Are you soaking his hay (assuming it's the one that tested with the high ESC+starch in May)? If not, I would be. Could you post current trim pictures? You can bump his Prascend up but

When she is up does she move around at all? Is she in deep bedding? How often does your trimmer see her? Have you been able to organize a vet visit? Sorry for questions.Your plate is full,so just

I apologize about the salt,Nicolle. I was concerned about iodine,but I see she is getting Amino Trace,so that should look after the iodine. Can you describe what you have been able to do with her

Sorry didn't answer questions. She was down about 6 or 7 hours yesterday after the Ace shot. Still had edema this morning.-- Nicolle D in BC Canada

Lorna, thank you for keeping us in your thoughts. Re: salt. It was recommended to use the pickling salt as it has nothing added to it. I can surely switch to iodized was just curious why it is

Hi there, Zahr started on his 3mg CP + 0.5mg prascend for an equivalent of 2.8mg prascend on July 12th so that he could be mostly on the new meds at least 2 weeks before the vet draws blood on the

Hi Nicolle, I have been following you and Elsa,liberally giving hugs , and hoping to hear some good news. I'm the one whose 5 boys sloughed all their feet years ago(selenium toxicity),so definitely

Nancy, Exercise definitely adds to the triglyceride issue. To start, test his glucose before exercise and immediately after then 10 minutes after. -- Eleanor in PA www.drkellon.com EC Owner 2001

None of those results are normal assuming they were on a low sugar and starch diet. Insulin normals depend on the diet. Chromium is part of the normal insulin response to glucose but there is no

Makes sense. Hopefully I can get vet to see it that way. Wonder if cost is a factor in where clinics decide to send their samples. -- Karen B. Wisconsin 2022 Apollo Case History:

Sherry did a great job of outlining the issues here. I would just add that the fall timing of his laminitis last year is highly suspicious for uncontrolled PPID during the seasonal rise. THYRO-L DOES

Hi Lynn, In all of the dorsal photos, he appears to be slightly laterally high. That would tip him onto his medial side more, which could explain why the medial side breaks off. At this stage, we
