[RC] Foal crashes w/ tetrecycline - Ridecamp Guest

Please Reply to: Katie Glowaski ktglo40@xxxxxxxxxxxxx or ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
==========================================


Good Morning,
Last wednesday, my endurance Foal was "over at the knees"  given tetracycline 
injection to release tendons (late afternoon). Was nursing at night feeding.   
Found weak, unable to rise in the morning. Survived with iv's and being held to 
nurse every 2 hours.  Horse people are a breed apart. Back breaking to p/u a 
foal. Thanks to my family and friends.
Blood work shows muscle enzemes over the top and electrolite balance still out 
of whack.
Our vets are baffled by this.
Does anyone have experience or ideas?
Katie, Stanwood WA
