My mare has been lame since last autumn, was diagnosed with sesamoidits in January and has done 7 months box rest. I've had her re-evaluated by a different vet after moving home from uni and the conclusion is along the lines I had expected as she's still lame. Vet says Suspensory desmitis, most likely of the branchs and is very very pesimistic that she will do anything other than very light hacking in the future.She is my pet first and foremost and will go no-where and will be fully retired if thats what she needs as her welfare is my top priority but I'm absolutly gutted :-( she's been working so well this last couple of years and really come into her own being absolutly solid to hack and do endurance with. Obv I will never ask her to work at the level she was doing 40-50km a week but I was looking for experiences of this sort of diagnosis, both good and bad, to see if there is any hope she will be able to do some light work comfortably?
