My horse had EPSM. Go to www.ruralheritage.com Karen
Valentine is an expert on EPSM and you can read alot about it. Even though my
horse was a Belgian I have read that they are finding it in most other breeds
including Arabs. Good Luck. Jean
I can't remember - but I thought I read about a muscle
condition (??EPSM or something like that) where the muscles don't process
?glucose / starch correctly. Sorry -- I can't remember the
details. I believe the correction was to eliminate ALL grain, and use
beet pulp and rice bran for calories (fat instead of starch). Anyhow,
it might be worth checking with your vet and having a muscle biopsy done.
So
any other ideas of what to try? Anything we've missed? Or is this
even a metabolic issue and we're misdiagnosing it?
