For anyone who is remotely interested and/or kindly replied to my frantic post a few days ago...
he got lamer over the days after his sudden lameness and there was still not obvious pulse/heat in his foot, so took him up to the vets, they nerve blocked his foot and he went sound, so that rules out any recurring suspensory injury (phew!!) but it does mean noone has a clue what is wrong in his foot!!
He is now half way through a week of box rest on bute and he HATES it !!!!!!!
He is still slightly lame in walk on bute so we have a feeling its something more sinister than just a tweak or strain
If he isnt sound off bute on Thursday, then its back to the vets for another look, X rays and goodness knows what else
Horses are such a great leveller - last weekend i was on the biggest high ever, two days later i have a mysteriously lame horse that's getting worse and everything is ever so slightly beginning to go belly up - AGAIN!!
So we'll see - that's the story so far on Fiddler....
