After a period of lameness which hasn't got better despite boxrest my boy is going in for a full lameness workup tomorrow and I am really nervous :( :(

Am really hoping it is nothing too serious but can't help thinking the worse.....please send me positive thoughts!

Thank you! :)
 
Good luck - I hope you get some answers. It's a worrying time -I've been there quite a lot recently! Let us know how you get on and what they find.
 
Hope you get to know cause tomorrow. Even if it's not what you want to hear at least you'll know what you're dealing with.

Try to get some sleep tonight so you can be fresh tomorrow ready to ask vet questions.
 
Thank you for all your comments - I do appreciate it, you are all right it is better to know what we are dealing with than not but I can't help thinking the worst.

I am going to go to bed as have to be up very early but here are some pictures of my boy doing what he does best!

You would never believe what has just happened......got to the yard this morning at 5:15 in order to do all jobs and be ready to leave at 7:00. OH had been up the day before in order to start horsebox and all was fine.

This morning the door wouldnt come down (hydrolic) and there was a problem with the electrics. Friend really kindly offered trailer and we managed to load him on, but he got really stressed and kept trying to turn around (normally travels sideways in horsebox). He was shaking loads and there was no way we could have travelled him like that.

Spoke to the vet and we won't be able to have a full work up for another 2 weeks......:( :(
 
:(So sorry to hear that, Really not what you want right now :(

Just try and stay positive until you can get to the vets and find out what you are dealing with! Like Tiffany has said, even if it isn't the best news atleast you will know what is wrong! After recently going through all of this all I can advice is to be as positive as you can until you get an asnwer :)
