Merck, who also puts out a human merck manual, has one for veterinarians.  It has most diseases, etc You can probably get one thru Amazon.com   Mine has labs for most domestic livestock. Mine is 1998 and it is updated about every 8 yrs so there should be a new one out.  Mine is the 8th edition 1998.  Some livestock supply places may also have it.  Most have online ordering.  Try using www.dogpile.com  for your seach engine.  It does well for me. mas

Subject: [RC] Normal values for an equine blood test

Does anyone know where to find the normal ranges for an equine blood 
test. We have to do any blood work here in human labs and while they 
can give us figures for the blood tests, there is no indication of 
what they mean. I've been checking on line for some normal ranges and 
have found a few but for example can't find the normal range for red 
blood cell count.  As well some of the measurements for the equine 
ranges are not the same as those given for humans....don't quite know 
what to make of that.

And much as I'd like to ask my vet, he's the one who doesn't know.
