His case history is  up to date except for the test results. I will update it soon. Other than the test results, everything has been updated a few days ago. Cynthia Boriskin from CA Tucker10/10

Hi Lorna, Yes, I looked there. There is a general submissions form which I can fill out and use, but I seem to remember another form that I got from the list here, but I can't find it in the files

Hi Jennifer, Have you tried http://ahdc.vet.cornell.edu/. I'd look in the Tests & Submissions section first. Lorna in Ontario,Canada ECIR Moderator 2002 *See What Works in Equine

Hi all, I can't seem to find the form for Cornell to give to my vet when he comes to draw blood on Monday. It will be a year since our IR journey began and Shahtahr has been on tested hay and

i was thinking about going barefoot with him. Does anyone have any advice? Bob Pacific Northwest 2/2013 >

LOL, you know, that is exactly what I was thinking about doing. Thanks for the help. Sue for Mama So CA, 3/2013 http://pets.groups.yahoo.com/group/echistory7/files/Susan%20Bott/

Linda, just have to comment that IMO heartbars are massively overused in the UK - nearly every horse I'm coming across at the moment has heartbars slapped on at the first sign of laminitis, often

Hi Sue, Cornell is the only lab capable of doing the leptin testing. We recommend sending all of the bloodwork there as from the experiences we've had here with thousands of horses they have been

Hi - Horses usually aren't put into heartbars unless the vet or farrier is concerned that the horse needs heavy duty support. Whether they do it just to do it, or there is a soundness issue, can't

We've had members report inaccurate results from labs other than Cornell. It's why the group makes the recommendation it does. The fact that he is so young has been a conundrum from the

I have recent xrays of the left fore in my folder if anyone would like to take a look? We didn't do any other xrays as it was only the left fore which was the problem. Linda, do you mean he shouldn't

Hi Kim, I flagged your message for Dr. Kellon. In the meantime, I took a look at your case history - thanks for the link. CG is getting 4lbs BS Carb Guard - correct? This could be an issue as it

I'm a new member and have been learning so much with this group. My horse Junior has been diagnoses with IR in January. We did have a bout of laminitis. I think we are on the mend. I've posted his

I'm having Mama tested on Monday for ACTH, insulin and glucose... lab won't do leptin. The vet says the tests must be done after fasting for 8-12 hours. Yet everything I've read here says

Kim, Dr K has developed a potential protocal *for geldings* such as yours. Depending on Pap's labs next month - still too cold here to test insulin reliably - he'll probably start it as part of the

All, Just received blood work results on CG. he's a little heavy this winter (changed to odtbc's due to quidding and low weight), cresty, just slightly footy, and threw an abcess (small) last
