My little 12 year old pony has cushings and is not responding to treatment. I posted last week and some of the replies were really positive and gave me some hope. However, she is really bad again today. She is desperately lame with really chronic laminitis, is really miserable and has spent at least 5 months of the last 10 in the stable alone and in pain. She has had a chest infection, impaction colic and a horrid skin problem all of which we cleared up but.....We are beginning to wonder whether we should get the vet out again to see whether we are doing the right things as she appears to be suffering and it is pitiful to watch. She has completely lost condition, can't keep weight on and her ears are flat to her head as soon as you approach her. So sad as she is normally such a perky little pony with loads of character and she is very beautiful. When do you know it is time to give up?
