[RC] shock wave for suspensory? - Amy MartinI was wondering if any have had success with the shock wave therapy for proximal suspensory ligament desmitis. My mare is newly diagnosed with this (finally took her to the local veterinary university for a second opinion) but I know she has had it a year. Unfortunately the source of her pain had been incorrectly diagnosed (by a well known and respected vet) and I was repeatedly told to exercise her to strengthen the stifles rather than give her the rest she really needed. So we are starting over fresh with 6 weeks rest followed by another ultrasound to check progress. Hopefully it is not too late and I am wondering if the wave therapy might better my chances to help my horse return to soundness.
