RE: [RC] stifle surgery - Kearby, Kate G Civ 748 CBSG/OMSorry been away from the board, working horses... and I realized my wording was wrong. I tend to look at a distance for lameness at the knee or hock, I know where the stifle is, just like I know where a pasturn or shoulder, etc are, and narrow down the site of the lameness once a lameness is determined.. . And some of roc's lameness now may be more due to recently being kicked in the stifle that had surgery than a problem related to it. -----Original Message----- From: Stephanie E Caldwell [mailto:biothanetack@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Wednesday, November 29, 2006 3:58 PM To: Kearby, Kate G Civ 748 CBSG/OM Cc: ridecamp Subject: Re: [RC] stifle surgery Kearby, Kate G Civ 748 CBSG/OM wrote: The 24 year old I'm riding to his 4000 open ctr miles and 100 or so aerc miles, had stifle surgery on one hock over 10 years ago, spent 3 weeks in a sling. Make sure they have a second opinion of a really good leg vet. I've heard different opinions. Actually the vet told them that Roc would be ok for light riding. Well Roc thinks it's light. How do you have stifle surgery on a hock? Steph =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
