Hi all!! my name is Corine and I own a almost 3 year old N/H gelding. He has never had any severe episodes. On average I see him trembling some muscle about 3...
Corine, I have somewhat of the same issue. I put my N/H/ QH on Acetazolimide powder about three years ago. He had 1 episode, and that was ALL I needed to...
What type of feed is he getting? How much and how often? Also, do you test each batch of hay for potassium levels? It can vary per supplier and per cutting,...
Hi Stacey! Thanks so much for your reply! So with the meds I really wont have any problems anymore? He had another small episode this morning… Do you ride...
Thanks Tiffany! Yes, the hay is tested yearly and is always from the same farmer. He gets free-feed hay, and his low potassium supplements. That’s it. No,...
Corine, it doesn't necessarily have to be that anything in his feed changed. The HORSE can change. The only way I knew Pickle had hypp was that he was at the...

Just make sure to stop frequently (every 3-4 hours or so) and offer her water (and allow her a good 15-20 minutes or so to relax and drink water...especially...
Corine, I would just ask him if he can get the pills crushed for you-it will be much easier-trust me....Scamper had no side effects....He even eats a little...
Corine, I ride Scamper very rarely. He is a pasture ornament, although he is the prettiest horse I have ever seen. My pharmacist crushes his Acetazolomide...

Thank you for the good advice! This will be my first long trip and I want my mare to be as comfortable as possible. Another option is to make it a 2-day...
You are so welcome! I think your mare should haul just fine to go ahead and haul straight through as long as you don't get too tired from driving. Good luck...

Is she having problems? Just wondering why you need to get rid of her? Not all of them need special diets and meds, actually, most don't. Not trying to...
No problems but everyone that I have talked to says that everything can be so unpredictable and the plan was for me to ride her for a couple of years until I...
I guess I need to know what some of the early signs or symtems are. Is it a guarantee that she will get some of these or is there a chance she may never?...
I know it can be a little spooky, especially when you have some people out there that are so anti hypp that they will just scare people to death. I have owned...
Hi Ann please don't make that choice quickly. I own a N/H mare that has been the best teacher she has been a lesson horse for everyone from 6 year olds to...
