Can anyone tell me the symptoms for PSSM please? I have a 7 year old traditional cob x Clydesdale who started head shaking back last summer. First thought was feet.....xrays done and shod accordingly (was barefoot). Continued head shaking and referred to Veronica Roberts at Langford who immediately pick up that she was reluctant to go forward and uncomfortable. Lameness expert had a look, lameness locators picked up mild left fore impact lameness, mild left hind impact lameness, and mild/moderate left hind pushoff lameness. We are starting a Bute trial in a couple of days time but having seen a few threads about PSSM it got me thinking if this could be a possibility? However I am totally in the dark about what PSSM is, whether it's possible my mare could have it, and what the treatment is? I don't want to waste money on various investigations, bone scans, MRI etc. if there is a possibility of something else going on.
