Sam had vet back yesterday who agrees with first vet it is laminitis...... . Much more advice and explanation offered by this vet though both really I guess said the same thing, just was more convinced by this vet...
Anyway, Going to blood test him on Tuesday for Cushings and Insulin resistance.. Should be interesting hunger and Sam do NOT go together, should think vet will be killed or at least maimed or fatally injured!!!
Then has to go back in 2 weeks for more xrays to compare with first set done in beginning of July....
Also wants to take some different views of the keratoma in his near fore....
At least I know this could take 6 months to sort and wants farrier to do something with his feet even thought the toe has been cut back and equipak fitted.
I feel the first vet felt I was wasting his time especially the first time he said nothing was wrong and basically i was neurotic.... Perhaps I was just too worried the first time and hadnt really listened.
Anyway Sam has waved another sick note in front of me, till Aug 18th when we go for xrays then no doubt will present me with another...
So much for broken horses, eh???
