Cant get her xrayed until weds  but my lovely lovely BF said he would cover my shift at work (we work together, his day off) if I needed so I could take her with Dad. luckily I had the day off anyway. So she is still on box rest and almost a week before I have any answers. Her legs still hard and swollen and hot. She is coping SO well with box rest, I am very proud of her. I can tell she is bored as she is windsucking more. She is eating SO much hay  she is going to explode! lol! I just want the x rays to happen so I can hopefully know whats up with my baby |

Just caught up with this Emily. Haven't seen the original thread about poor Meg's legs. It sounds a bit of a mystery? What a worry for you  |

*Waves*
I'm off 'box rest' now ;D as my back is much better; but poorly Megs....
Thanks for the links to the original threads. My, it is swollen. No wonder you were upset. Its a shame you have to wait so long for the x rays.
Do you do the hot cold thing with swellings on horses ? 2 minutes cold compress, 2 minutes hot, alternately for a total of 10 minutes, rest for 10 and do it again - Probably not as you'd be running backwards and forwards to the house. I have two steroplast hot/cold reusable pads that the osteo gave me which look as though they could be used on a horse's knee. I could run them up to you if you wanted me to?
I know it won't cure it and the x rays have to be done, but it sure was a great comfort on my back.
