[QUOTE="Kelly, post: 34906, member: 314"] In reply to your questions. Yes , I have had 3 different vets look at her. Yes, she was very over weight. She has dropped down to a pretty good weight now. She still has a little crested neck. She was on thyroid meds to see if it helped. ( her thyroid was off very little when tested). I have used bute or banamine when it is real bad. Right now she doesn't show pain. The farrier said she could see where it has pushed into the sole a little. I can't really exercise her much as she has an injury from a few years ago in her hip from being kicked by another horse. I had her on gluco/chondroitin most of the winter.Maybe that could possibly be contributing to founder? Sugars or ? I put her on msm because I learned it was an anti imflamatory. She gets the best care possible! She is on a worming program . I have also noticed that she would go lame about 2-3 days after almost every cold spell so I started blanketing her more in the winter, especially when it went below -10. Thanks for your help! Let me know if you can think of anything else! [/QUOTE]
