OMG, Fly Boy, desparately ill

[moneypit1]

Fly was ok this morning, at lunchtime he was very ill indeed. Puss streaming from his nostril and a high temperature. Vets have injeced massive dose of anti-biotics and taken bloods and swabs. Coming back tomorrow to inject again. Have been warned "could" be strangles although vet says he honestly doesn't think so. Examined mouth and teeth under sedation for abcess, nothing. What a worry. God I am so scared, I love this horse so much. Feel so utterly helpless.xx

Thoughts to you and Fly boy, hope it turns out ok xxxx

 

[squirrelc17]

oh poor boy and poor you.
get well wishes.
and it could be tooth abcess as similar with puss out nose as strangles but horses tend not to be so ill.

Oh no, everything crossed it’s just something simple and clears up very quick!

 

[Chestnuttymare]

Hope the treatment brings him back to full health quickly. Horses are such a huge worry aren't they!

Oh ****, that doesn't sound good Has he been exposed to harvesting close by? Maybe an allergic reaction to something?

Hope he makes a speedy recovery.

I sort of miss read your post because of his name and was thinking about a friend's 3 year old son who complained about a fly going up his nose, but as they couldn't see anything thought he was making it up (he was the child who delighted in saying the grass was red etc). About a week or 10 days later he had gunk streaming out of his nose, throat and corners of his eyes, and was very ill. Several days of antibiotics later and much blowing of his nose a gunky load of what looked like bits of dead fly came out (yuk)
