Thank you x

She has had a SI injection and the vet said that should spread around the area. We are now rehabbing in hand, and I will get back on in a couple of weeks. That will be about 2 months after the injection. Vet said 3 weeks, but I wanted to get her muscles as strong as possible first. She's meant...

I've just been through this and arthritis of a spinal joint just in front of SI was detected with a portable ultrasound scanner.

Is it spooky. Does it nap. Does it jump (big red flag when they say it doesn't like jumping - could indicate an issue). Does it run out or put in a dirty stop when it doesn't fancy the jump. Will it do coloured poles. Is it happy to be out all year, in all weathers. Does it need a lot of...

Michen, read your own words "When I moved him, I gave him sucralfate twice a day as a matter of course, I can't remember what day I finished it but probably a good 4/5 days before this aggression started." Could it not be that the sucralfate hadn't quite done its job, and he still needs it? I...

I use Miscanthus pellets, but if the shop doesn't have any I've used wood pellets and even straw pellets. They all mix in and work just the same, although I kick some of the old bed on top of the straw pellets in case my horse decides to try eating them. Love them! Much easier than straw and...

I bought mine last summer. Wasn't cheap, flew through the vetting. Diagnosed with arthritis in a spinal joint last month. Absolutely gutted. We're now rehabbing after a SI injection, but I may have an unrideable horse at the end of it. I had 3 fail the vet before I found her, so thought I was...

Hall Place near Reading has most of that, but the hacking isn't great.

The one that really annoys me is when you arrange a lunch/coffee/whatever with somebody, send the obligatory "are we still on for tomorrow/looking forward to it" message, and then get "Oh sorry, I can't make it." I always feel like messaging back " So when exactly were you going to tell me? When...

Mine did exactly this and it turned out she had arthritis in one of the joints in her spine, and a very sore back. Echo everybody else's advice to get a thorough work up by the vet.

I completely snapped mine skiing. I felt a pop in the middle of my knee, and then it became totally unstable and my ski carved round so my foot was virtually facing in the opposite direction. That tore the medial ligaments, which were the ones that hurt! I had the op and 6 months physio...
