Fred's Stifle Problem - Day 12
No difference I'm afraid. Still catching every stride this morning on both hind legs this time.
I can't help but think that the op is a failure.
If she is not improving in another week, the Vet has agreed to sever both Medial Ligaments as the research that showed increased arthritis after this op was done on HEALTHY horses without stifle issues. Latest research on horses WITH sticky stifles to start with has found NO arthritis issues. They think it is because the affected horses have different stifle conformation to healthy horses and this limits the long term damage.
I am not going to give up on her without a fight!!
