I haven't had any personal experiences, but I have heard of conditions  
such as cysts, tumors, etc. causing different types of problems.     
I've also heard of mares that simply have an overdose of hormones.  I  
don't even want to speculate, as there are probably a half dozen  
different things that could be the root cause, and the treatment could  
very well be different for each one.  :)

Just for the record, I AM going to call my vet now.  But I wanted to  
hear if anyone else had experiences like this with mares in heat.   
Thank you, gang.  :)
