Dr. Heidi,

You recommend using a big muscle.  Well, I did that last year - used 
the rump.  And I had a lame, feverish horse for a couple days.  
Rubbed DMSO into the swelling and let her be.  This was with the new 
6-way that was on the market.  Will never do that again!  Am 
seriously thinking of breaking up into as many separate 
injections as possible and not use combos.  Sure appreciate 
suggestions.  Always have given all flues and rhino.  Is that not 
necesary for a horse that doesn't travel much and has pretty 
consistent paturemates (we board)?
