All your vibes please - again!

[kayleigh_and_rocky]

Well Rocks is bad again

His breathing is perfectly fine at rest but when ridden if he goes out of a walk he just cannot cope, coughs splutters and gasps for air

hes actually getting worse each day, and worse since hes been on the inhalors so that makes me think he could be allergic to the inhalor. Vet coming out tommorow with a different inhalor, if that doesn't work hes going to have to be referred to liphook and taken there as we've exhausted all other options (as hes already on steroids).
So please please ALL your vibes for Rocks and hoping it's just that hes allergic to inhalor hes on (as hes got worse since being on it) and new one works, because the last thing i want to have to do is retire him at 6

Though on the positive side at least hes ok at rest so perfect comfortable when hes out in the field or in stable.
It's all speculation but vet seemed rather worried that the inhalor wasn't working and was infact having the opposite effect.
So please all your vibes

lots of vibes for rocks!!! thinking of you both, hopefully it can be improved

 

[AmyMay]

I'm sure you've been through all of this - but could there be something at your place that is making him like this?????

Trees, pollen etc.

 

[Madam_max]

Oh crikey!!!!

I am sorry. I think you should just get him referred is he still covered by insurance?

 

[teapot]

awww no

Lots of good vibes being sent

 

[kayleigh_and_rocky]

Yes and no. We moved yards but hes got allergic airways syndrome so hes always allergic to everything, thin air, there is no way you can tell what its just a case of coping - which hes not

they do have a scientific word for an unknown allergy but i cant remember what it was. I think the vet is more concerned that treatment that cures 95% of cases isnt helping him, infact is making him worse.

Oh no, poor Rocky

Positive vibes coming your way, i really really hope you get to the bottom of this with a positive outcome.

 

[kayleigh_and_rocky]

Yep he's still covered for now but next year will no doubt be void for respiratory problems. I just wish that i could have an answer once and for all

 

[Madam_max]

Well do it now as it will def be excluded a year from your first claim. Honestly just tell them that's what you want. I did.

 

[kayleigh_and_rocky]

Hmm well i might not be covered - mum has to have a chat with vet and insurance - can't really go into much more detail as there might be someone lurking lol you never know with these insurance people!!

 

[Elise]

Oh no poor Rocks. Sending loads of vibes so that he gets better soon xx

Kayleigh I was so pleased to read your post when it said Rocky had been fine with taking the inhalor and now this!

You two are really having a time of it lately! I hope you find a solution when the vet visits and that Rocky is feeling more comfortable at work soon. Big hugs to you and loads of +vibes+ to Rocky. I'll be keeping my fingers crossed for you.

 

[kayleigh_and_rocky]

Thank you so much - yes i too was absolutely over the moon when he took to the inhalor so well, it really showed the trust he had in me, i just want my poor boy to be well again

((((VIBES))))))

 

[kayleigh_and_rocky]

Thanks mat xx

 

[truffles]

*hugs* and many positive vibes on their way to you. Hope he perks up asap.

 

[ruscara]

Oh no, I am so sorry to read this. I thought the move was going to cure him

Let's hope the vet can get to the bottom of what he's sensitive to, and that they can find an inhaler or drugs to make him better. What a worry for you.

 

[zigzag]

Hugs and positive vibes to you both, I hope it gets sorted soon

 

[kayleigh_and_rocky]

Yeh i thought the move was going to cure him too

the only positive thing i'm clinging too is that he could be reacting to the inhalor - like i said hes got far worse since hes been on it. Will update you all when i know whats happening

 

[mickey]

I hope you get it sorted. Not that you want to end up at Liphook, but if you do you will have all the expertese you could need there to get it fixed. Try not to worry (I'm sure it's hard not to). Best Wishes to you and Rocky.
