He doesnt look that bad at all.
Bit of a podgy belly - are they suspecting a bit of worm damage?
Liver problems are easy to fix, it regenerates itself very quickly. Equicell is good (have used v. succesfully), Rcaing demon works for the company (although may be good to let her get the honeymoon over first!).
 
He doesn't seem to carry much weight usually. But yes he is lean. By no means a rescue case!!
At least you got the vet and now know what it is you are dealing with. I hope he picks up soon!!!
Positive vibes coming to you and your horsey
 
yer im glad i didnt wait for the blood tests, not expecting worm damage as hes on a regular routine, but we gave him a booster wormer just i case.

thanks for the positive vibes

Perhaps a tad lean, HOWEVER, YOU HAVE ALREADY GOT THE VET ON THE CASE (so 10/10 there) as you are worried. He otherwise looks bright. The summer one gives the impression he might be a bit wormy - dropped belly - but could just as easily be unfit.

Bless him. I hope he improves soon - as has been said, livers can repair themselves if only mildly damaged. Good luck and let us know. Try not to worry! (
