im sure us horsey people spend more than 50% of our lives worrying about our horses....
well heres my latest worry...
I have a 17yr old welsh sec C with a history of lami although mild bouts. (warm feet, light pulse. keep in for a few days and he's fine again). yesterday he came in with fatty/fluidy lumps above his eyes but they have gone down again this morning. no digital pulse or heat in his feet and he's sound. never known him do this before. his current weight is ok, he's never slim but he's not obese. he lives out on a postage stamp fatty field with a shetler in the day and in on soaked hay at night.
how worried should I be?

I'd get him tested for Cushings if I were you, but I don't think I'd be panicking about him.

this ^^^ if you are very quick you can still do the talk about laminitis free test.

Get him tested for ems too fat above the eye is a symptom.
