Stressful Week

I woke up Monday , Nov 27th to find that my horse Stylin couldn't walk. She was very sore on all four feet and after having the vet come out that morning - she was diagnosed with acute laminitis in all four feet. That was a giant surprise ! We had ridden on Saturday and just played around on Sunday and let her and the other horses graze in the back yard Sunday afternoon. Nothing seemed abnormal at all on Sunday night. We treated her agressively, wrapped her feet, administered pain meds and I had to give a shot of Ace Promazine every 6 hours around the clock to promote blood flow to her hooves. The shots lasted for 4 days and then we've slowly backed her off the pain meds and started hand walking her. As of today she was able to be turned out in the paddock for the daylight hours. We should be riding again within 3 weeks, but I'll have to slowly bring her back up to our 4 hours rides. We were very fortunate to get through this so well... our vet believes that Stylin will have no permanent damage from her ordeal.
