[RC] ALLERGIES (Sundaez) - Kristi Schaaf

Hi Mel -
Sorry, I'm on digest so don't have your direct email
addy. I have a horse who has had such bad upper
respiratory allergies that we thought he might be a
roarer (until the roaring always went away after the
first frost). He also had swollen lymph nodes, runny
eyes & nose, etc, all summer. He did not have any skin
allergies. I work at a vet school and asked a couple
of vets what to do, and they pretty much shrugged
their shoulders and said to try cortisone (and I said
no way). Anyway, this year, at age 6, he has had
almost no allergy problems. I of course can't say for
sure since he's a one horse study, but I give the
credit to APF, which I put him on early this spring.
It's not cheap (a $60 bottle lasts me about 4-6 weeks)
but it gives me hope that his allergies are under
control enough that he can do some AERC rides next
year. I'll be bummed if someone tells me that using
APF is breaking the spirit of the unwritten drug rule
(especially since I believe a respected endurance vet
was involved in APF's development). Kristi iluvdez at
