What is the treatment protocol for those not very close to vet care
and the "want" to know?....for just in case.
I know someone who believed their horse became ill with epm (?)
protozoan enecephamaliatis (sp?). They started treatiing the horse
with colloidal silver and supposedly the horse recovered. The reason
I talk as if I'm skeptical is because the horse was 12 years old and his
conformation was such that he was not capable of "collecting" the way an
english person may like. The people boarded this horse at a lady's
place who was...to me....very english oriented and to ride a horse on a
loose rein was unheard of. They were riding the horse alot and
doing alot of what I would call english type riding and trying to
establish collection. The horse became lame and the local vet
didn't know what was wrong with him. I believe he became lame
because of the riding/training they were pushing onto this horse who
physically wasn't capable of doing what they were asking. The
overworking of his lax muscles caused him to go lame and therefore when
they started treating him and not riding him as much, he
recovered. Has anyone else encountered a similar
situation?
I know I'm babbling about something that has nothing to do with
this so I'll get back on track.
So my question was, what is the treatment?
Thanks

The sooner you get a horse on
treatment the more likely a positive outcome. Truman
