Hi everyone, I want to test Carl for Lyme disease and my vet thinks Im nuts but of course will do what I ask. Carl's insulin isnt being controlled despite all of the balancing. His ACTH done Sept 10 @ Cornell is 151 pg/mL insulin 101.87 ulU/mL. per Dr. K he was started on 1 mg Prascend on Wed. he isnt tolerating it well, very depressed I went down to 1/2 tab yesterday until Monday I'll go up to 1 mg split 2xday, I will receive APF on Monday, which should help.
I cant help but feel there is another culprit here for Carl's labs,(insulin never going down) so I want to test for Lyme. anyone have info on that,what the protocal for testing is etc. or has had a horse with that? Carl is 12, came from Nebraska, and Ive had trouble with his health since day 1..which was in 2008, he foundered Feb. 2009 diag IR Mar 2009

thanks

Cornell's server is down (Animal Health Diagnostic Center) so I can't link you the details right now but they have the most up to date testing and I would send blood there.
