I think I need some vibes, Ru my 5yr old TB mare is now in horspital for an op and will be there for a few days. She was referred to the RVC with a ovarian Tumour so they are going to do a few tests and then Probably operate on Thursday.

To make matters worse Sid my 15yr old TB has got jealous of ru getting attention so decided to come up from the field yesterday on 3 legs. So he is now on Bute and box rest!

What is it about TB's

Of course good vibes are coming your way. I bet the worst thing for Ru will not be the op itself - but the nil by mouth leading up to it. Here's hoping you have a happy little non-aggressive mare afterwards. Keep us updated please (and on Sid too).

well Ru is home, and still has both her ovaries. Things have got a little more complicated than everyone liked. So Ru was sent home last night with a prescription for Regumate.... this is not going to solve the problem but they want to use it as a diagnostic test, for 2 months. I think it is to prove that this is a medical problem and not in either Ru's or our heads.

They have also asked if we can get video of her in season too.

*sigh*
