Bad Blood - I'm miserable!

[flyingfeet]

Okay - so my flat my horse who I've been worrying about and fell over jumping a few weekends ago had a blood test today

Rang the vets expecting to be told I'm a overreacting owner who just wasted money on a blood test... but no holy cr*p his blood work is a total mess and my other horse hasn't got a normal one either.

Waiting to speak to the vet tomorrow, but now totally miserable. Have been pumping them full of oats to 'perk' them up and now feel dreadful that I should have picked up on this earlier (no temp, no snotty nose, coat good)

Hey it happends, don't beat yourself up, at least you had the blood test done and can start to address the problems now. Giving them oats I'm sure won't have made too much difference, there must have been something wrong before then.

Let us know tomorrow what the vet says, but for now you can't do anything about it so good a slug of wine and a goods night sleep...

 

[flyingfeet]

Well still feel crap about it and half a bottle of chenin blanc doesn't seem to have made any difference... might have to attack the sloe gin.....

BV vets???

Sorry to hear this its crappy when yo get results back like that BUT we cannot over react all of the time - most the time the horses are fine

!!! Keeping your sense of humour that's a good sign - you'll make it through the night!

As Tog said, at least you had the blood work done!!
Hopefully everything will be fine, so get a good nights sleep and be positive for tomorrow.

Yep BV - had Jeremy out and convinced him to microchip everyting too, including 2 terriers!

Oh I swear by Jeremy, I am sure he will get to the bottom of it ASAP

(BTW put some biz yor way in the pic gallery - Chico thread LOL)

Jeremy's fantastic - we've had him for years, he even dug a peice of bone out of my youngest when every other vet would have had them in, operated and charged £1,000+

I have a lot of respect for him.

He is indeed a vet worth respect - certainly doesnt go round seeing pound signs and acting on them - in fact they are a fab practise full stop - am glad to have them around
