update on my post the other day, irregular striding

[china]

the was my post the other day if you didnt see it, http://www.horseandhound.co.uk/forums/sh...rue#Post5343616
anyway, decided to have the vet out today for peace of mind, had lameness workup done on him, he troted up fine, flexion tests fine, lunge, not so good, under saddle even worse, he does not want to go forward from behind worse on the right rein that on the left, he is not lame as such but is not right behind. he was very tender over lumbar and pelvic area after exercise so the vet thinks it is muscular, he is having physio a week monday and saddler a week friday, if he does not improve with exercises in six to eight weeks time he is going in for x-rays of his spine to check for kissing spine as he is very cold back which could indicate KS. and x-ray his pelvis hocks and fetlocks, he is going on a supplement called myoplast if i remember right, its an amino acid supplement that puts on muscle and not fat, he is on this while doing his execises to help him. no competing. my poor gee gee!!

Oh dear, well I hope he comes right after some physio and its nothing underlying, they are such a worry aren't they

 

[Trubie]

Oh no, lets hope he comes right soon

Was hoping it wasnt too serious

yes defo, i thought id rather part with some money and nothing be wrong then something being going wrong and ignoring it. even tho were still not sure whats going on with him were a step closer than before the vet came
