Re: [RC] Laminitis Supplement Suggestions - Kristen A FisherI thought that Cushing's dealt with the pituitary and insulin resistance had to do with the thyroid or am I extremely confused? Kristen ----- Original Message ----- From: <kstandefer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Wednesday, March 24, 2004 3:22 PM Subject: [RC] Laminitis Supplement Suggestions I would suggest having your horse tested for insulin resistance (even carrots can aggrivate a laminitic horse if the cause is related to insulin resistance). For more information and help go to this Yahoo Group: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/EquineCushings/ I have some other help to suggest, but don't want to post other people's email addresses publically.
