Can anyone tell me much about liver fluke ? My vet suspects my horse has it. He is now at level 5 on the liver damage scale and on a scan showed 3 nodules in the liver.
He has had the works.... gastroscope, 2x liver biopsies, all internal organs scanned, and bloods! Bloods showing high inflammation and raised enzymes .
He is at Liphook one of the leading veterinary hospitals which specialise in liver disease but they don’t seem to be able to provide a definitive diagnosis...
Can my horse now pass on liver fluke to others if he is sharing a field?
Any Liver Fluke advice would be great.
(He is coming home to a new yard this weekend and has started steroids and treatment for Fluke) his old yard was an old dairy farm 50 odd years ago
