18 year old horse, has had grass induced lami in the past.
Currently thin, losing weight and seems to run out of energy half way round a ride. Had to increase feed to compensate.
This week farrier has found sub-clinical laminitis (no symptoms just stretching of white line) but then after 2 days shoeless on grass (currently growing) horse is definitely slightly lame only in hind feet.
GOt vet coming to test for cushings.
SHould I be asking him to look for anything else while he's there?
