Re: [RC] Define Colic - Dabney Finch

Good question, kat. I thought of it too, as I wrote....

Kaizen had no signs from which the ride vet thought he was colicy, but to me he looked unhappy and he was not all that interested in eating. I knew he was well within condition for what we'd been doing, so I started to think what it could be. I remembered the elyting, and that's when I realized I'd accidentally given him a double dose. So, from that I concluded I'd given him a tummy ache.

I haven't either, but I did cause a tummy ache once (just not
to the colic stage)...


I must confess that I find this statement a bit unusual.  For ME, 'tummy
ache in my horse' is the definition of colic.

For those of you who make a distinction between these, at what 'stage' does
a tummy ache become colic?

It is difficult to talk about whether something causes colic or not if we
aren't all using the word colic in the same way.
