Hi, Sarah. Welcome to ECIR! You will receive a formal welcome letter with tons of information. I just want to give you a heads-up that you should immediately start gathering information for your Case

Hi, Rhonda. The answer is a clear and resounding YES. High insulin, not high blood glucose, is the primary problem for our horses with EMS. Many, even, most horses with insulin outside the safe range

Hi, Ronelle. I was looking for information about your IR horse but didn't find your case history easily or linked in your automatic signature. Do you have one? It would be really helpful for ECIR volu

Hi, Diane. Many laminitic horses need time to lie down and take weight off their feet. Some spend a lot of time down, which is okay. Does Denny have access to a deeply bedded stall 24/7? I see a run-i

Thanks, Dawn. Very helpful. I also store pergolide at room temperature, in a drawer, in my always-cool, shaded but heated in winter mudroom. It's aways within the storage temperature range (thought to

Hi, Chemelle. Since Andy is on Invokana, you should post this in a separate topic to bring it to Dr Kellon's notice.

Hi, Lora. It depends. At certain times of year, Equi-Analytical is very busy. I've had wet chemistry results take 7 business days, which is about 10 days. Other times of the year, I've received wet ch

Hi, Diane. Finding the right hoof boot isn't as easy as buying a particular brand. Cavallo boots are fine, but they may not be what Denny needs. I suggest you engage a good barefoot trimmer and have t

Hi, Angie. I face the same problem, as all hay I purchase is from a feed store that receives new shipments as soon as hay sells. The result is I have no choice but to use NIR to get any result before

Dawn, how is the oil stored? Refrigerator? 1 ml for 8 mg of pergolide sounds very doable - such a tiny quantity. I also found the flavoring added to the capsules by Pet Health to be insoluble in water

Hi, Sara. Is this your particular question: ECIR doesn't requires the use of Source. It's just one possible iodine supplement. It is possible to overdose iodine using any iodine supplement if you don'

Cathy, You're right. ECIR has always recommended getting a 30 day supply, freshly compounded, and stored in the refrigerator. I also use Pet Health. I admit that I've been getting a 90 day supply at o

Hi, Liz. It would be helpful for volunteers to see your hay analysis. If you have it in pdf format, you can add it to your case history folder, at this link: https://ecir.groups.io/g/CaseHistory/files

Hi, Kerry. The signature is a snap. Just follow the link in my first message to your subscription page. Sometimes you have to scroll for ages to get to the automatic signature box down low on the page

Hi, Kerry. Would you do ECIR volunteers a favor and add the link to Tofurky's Case History folder to your signature? As a reminder, go to your subscription page at this link: https://ecir.groups.io/g/

MTG works the same way -- it smothers. Very old school, but it worked on an itchy dock. I'd only use it if temperatures aren't already hot.

Cindy, do you have a high resolution digital camera that can shoot on macro mode? Or a magnifier, anything from magnifying glasses that come in a kit like this https://www.amazon.com/Magnifier-Recharg

Hi Nan. BP absorbs 3 times its weight in water. So 1 lb dry yields 4 lbs RSR. You have a big supply if you started with 3 pounds dry BP. It holds in the refrigerator several days and in the freezer fo

CH is up to date. These labs were 13 days after Invokana dose was reduced to 0.33 mg/kg, one half tablet. They more or less confirm the IDEXX triglycerides a few days earlier, showing a slight elevati

Sorry, Shevawn.
