I've seen it be a a big benefit for soft tissue injuries. PRP is something else to consider. My boss had a gelding with a tendon injury that she used it on and had success (she gives it a lot of credit for getting him riding sound again)!Marehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16127842562111344534noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3543945977774319437.post-2446299544040055242016-09-21T11:40:07.609-04:002016-09-21T11:40:07.609-04:00With and not know, and even though it sucks I woul...With and not know, and even though it sucks I wouldn't count her out as an endurance horse just yet, and it doesn't sound like you are. It's not possible to always prevent all injuries, and so don't beat yourself up too hard. You saw I settle lateness that wasn't right and didn't resolve see you got it figured out. When I have rehab various injuries over the years my relationship with my horse at the end of it always came out for the better. I think your attitude is great and I'll see you on the other side :-)Melhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16627065628317652042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3543945977774319437.post-58629244647831305802016-09-21T09:55:10.494-04:002016-09-21T09:55:10.494-04:00Dom.

And CONGRATS on Tevis. =) =)<br /><br />Part of me worries she did this on the 100 and that's why she was wonky near the end and stuff. But I really don't think she could have made it through the following Ride Between the Rivers 30 without an issue if she'd really been injured at the 100. Her rider at RBTR is VERY attune to feeling an "off" horse and one of the ride vets who ALWAYS dings Q on her way of going didn't even ding her at this ride! My ride journal notes that I rode her 5 miles and again for 2 hours with an intense dressage workout with tons of transitions after RBTR and she wasn't off at all for either of those... So hard to tell for certain! But must move forward. Must keep hope. Must hope for success like you and Digs have had!Liz Stouthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18267806576736655184noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3543945977774319437.post-25563131565546465242016-09-21T09:51:59.619-04:002016-09-21T09:51:59.619-04:00Suspensory injuries can be very scary and devastat...Suspensory injuries can be very scary and devastating. I am heart broken that you are going through this. BUT I came here to let you know that Ozzy blew out both hind suspensories when he was four and five. I use the words blew out because the injuries were crippling and very severe. As you know, he went on to be a successful endurance horse and did 50's without every being lame on either hind leg (he did get a stone bruise at Foxcatcher one year). It is now ten years later, and despite all his issues, the suspensories were never a problem after they were healed. I hope that gives you some hope for Q.

Digs had an upper suspensory avulsion in May 2014. It was minor (he completed the ride, tore 20 miles into a 50) but he had funky hind end issues on subsequent rides. Finally diagnosed and we did the rehab. This one is highly recommended:<br />http://www.equinepartnersamerica.com/research/Gillis-RehabTendonsLigamentsAAEP.pdf<br /><br />Once we got through that, I added in weekly dressage lessons and started back to conditioning in late Spring 2015. Did a 50 in the late summer of 2015. Finished 3 50's and Tevis this year. It's definitely not the end of things.
