He was on 10 mlls once per day that's what got me to half a pill.  I update to 12ML once per day when I started the additional 0.25

I have decided to put him back on pain medication until I can get him sorted out on prascend, metformin and get my blood results back.

 I think trying to change too many things at once is a bad idea with Vinnie.  Because he was also pretty painful I don't know if he was off food because of a pain response or because the additional dose of   prascend or because of starting metformin. Too many variables to consider

Quick update.. great news, this was not a laminitic episode as much as it was a mechanical issue.  After my brilliant vet created a pad to attach to the lf boot to reduce torque on the laminae and aid in breakover with a special pad inside the boot and then we adjusted the breakover in the rf by beveling the sneaker he is feeling amazing again.

Thanks for all your support again and again!! Nan
