Subject: [RC]   Blood test for Insulin Resistance?


Have a mare I think may be insulin resistant.  I believe I need to have lab
work done to confirm this, right?
Any special precautions to take before the vet comes?  Any specific test
which is more accurate than another?
I've been trying to get her extra weight off and the crestiness is lessening,
but would sure love to be able to let her graze in the spring grass a little
and get her carrots now and then...
Advice and information much appreciated.
Thanks........nikki
