Does feeding pro biotic with polysaccharides compound the problem?

The example of explosive behavior is so helpful. My horse started presenting with explosive behavior last year, and it turns out he had EPM. So we treated him and he is doing wonderfully now. Fortunately he only had One explosive event on the ground and two in the saddle before I figured out that something was wrong and had him checked.

With the twitching- if they are twitching on the shoulder and flank pretty consistently (horse not tested but I’m going to test because I think he may have it) would that be considered a fail as well?

If for instance the horse's muscles got tight after the 5 mins of exercise, would you cease exercise immediately and return to stall, or walk it out, do stretches, or ? TIA
@PSSMAwareness Жыл бұрын
If the horses muscles get tight after 5 minutes cease exercise as the horse is exercise intolerant Continuing to exercise a horse with tight muscles could cause serious muscle damage.

So sorry for the loss of Karlos…I too own a pssm horse who is now 14. It’s been a heartbreaking journey. I am proud of you and my heart goes out for you. Thank you thank you for your video and plea! I was told by the registry about 7 years ago that it was “ok” to breed her, which I would never do. I knew something was wrong from purchasing her as a yearling but it would take years to get a proper diagnosis. I’m sharing your video because it is of such importance to get the word out about this terrible abnormality. You are brave and kind. Thank you!!! On behalf of all horses with this disorder and their loving, tireless, owners!

Kopf hoch, du schaffst das. Mit meinem PSSM 1 und 2-Wallach habe ich eine andere Qualität des Zusammenseins gefunden. Ich gehe jeden Tag zu ihm und frage: "Na, was möchtest du heute tun? Brauchst du eine Massage, willst du dich bewegen - Bodenarbeit oder Spazieren gehen?" Es geht nicht mehr darum was ich möchte, sondern was mein Pferd braucht zum Glücklichsein ohne Schmerzen. Und wenn er glücklich ist, dann bin ich es auch. Ich überlege mir immer wieder neue Dinge, die wir miteinander tun können. Da ist das Reiten nicht mehr wichtig.

Another possibility to relieve muscle tightness: trigger point massage, keeping warm: put on a warm horse planket for the night and/or bad weather, physiotherapy (Masterson Method, you can do this yourself once learned). I do this alternating with 20 minutes of suppling exercises in hand which I end before another tightening could begin.

The horses in video have very clear symptoms- the most difficult cases have very subtle symptoms. And what’s worse is the symptoms may not show up when vet shows up- on and off lameness, just not using their back end correctly. It took me forever to figure out what was happening and vet was no help.
