I've been there and bought the T-Shirt with this type of situation. Now you have the results you know what the problem is so you can stop worrying what is wrong with Ted
Has the vet suggested a Vit B jab and a liver support suppliment + a probiotic if issuing AB's

If you are in Berks and need a hand let me know, I come with an array of little rugs for every occasion

He's gone straight onto milk thistle -just the powdered seed from the local feedshop, but vet has suggested Legaphyton. He's already on a pre/probiotic, thankfully.

Legaphyton is very good and with being for a little one it will last for ages
It sounds as if you are all systems go and Ted is in excellent hands
Bit of a shock for you but at least you know what you are dealing with now, you will be an expert on this problem within a week
 
According to my vet from the RVC there is a virus going round with colicky symptoms and high temp that is affecting mostly older geldings, we think it's what is wrong with Buzzie. She said it is similar to peritonitis.
 
He will get the care he needs with you and is a lucky little chap, even if he isn't feeling very lucky right now. Everything crossed for you both. My last boy had a liver enzyme thing in his early days with me. Having just compared his blood results with Ted's my chap's issue was more moderate, but it presented in a similar way, just looking at bit sorry for himself and a bit listless. He was easily sorted with a course of B vitamins and some milk thistle and I hope you have an equally positive outcome with the little Tedling xxx
 
My first thought was liver problems as my rescue mini mare presented in exactly the same way! I had a long fight to get her right, ABs and the stuff mentioned before that I can't spell. She's now on feedmark milk thistle and is doing really well.

Loads of good vibes for the adorable Ted, I hope he feels better soon. He's a lucky boy to have such a fantastic owner!

Err - Ted has none of those symptoms!
 
How is he doing this morning?

Do you know what the prognosis is going to be long term? I really don't know anything about liver issues, do you know at this point if the liver damage is likely to be reversible or is it going to be a case of managing the symptoms.

Thinking of you and little Ted.
 
Morning guys. Auslander has asked this be posted on her behalf.

Ted has been put to sleep.

It was the best thing for him as he wasn't in a good way this morning and the only kind option.

Sorry...I'm sure Aus will update you when she can but it's all happened a bit quickly and she's understandably devastated.

Xx
 
Auslander I'm so so sorry for your loss. Ted was such a huge character - he gave us such joy on this forum hearing about his adventures. I can only imagine how much joy he must have given to you. Thank you for sharing with us and I'm so sorry that this has been so sudden.
 
Just read your thread Auslander so sorry to here super Ted is poorly - but you're such a caring owner that he'll got the best TLC.
l understand how it feels when you do your best for your animals to avoid illness/injury etc & you wonder why you, when you see others that don't appear to have any issues & then there's people we don't do simple care such as worming at an early age resulting in problems later on mainly once they have sold them on passing the problem to someone else to deal with.
The good thing you know what's little Ted has & you can treat him. Will look forward to seeing him make a recovery & get up to his cheeky antics. Hugs & best wishes to you
