My lad went lame last October and got diagnosed with bone spavin, vet xrayed etc and said to just work him through it and it will fuse and he wont have any further problems, this was working great and 2 months ago he went sound under saddle. Now, he has gone lame again, same leg, same lameness, definitely spavin again! The vet is due thursday afternoon and said we will now go down the injection route, thing is my insurance runs out at the beginning of october as its been nearly a year! Do i go down the injection route? Or do i push for the surgery to make the bones fuse fast? The only reason being is if the injections dont work, the next stage is surgery, by that time the insurance would have excluded that leg and i can not afford over £2500 to pay for the surgery. So what ever happens we have got to try and fix him in a month 
What would you do? Im going to talk to my vet thursday and see what he thinks, i know these injections havent worked for alot of people i know, where surgery always has??..... What ya think? x
