Avatar f tn I have owned and rode horses all my life. I am having difficulty coping with not being able to ride because ppl told me I cant. Is it seriously that big a deal to ride? I don't want to hurt my baby, but it's literally the only thing I have done for myself and can't deal with giving it up for so long...
Avatar f tn as I like to call, not pseudo or epileptic I have major muscle contractions, spasms, twitches, intense shaking, complete paralysis and Charlie horses everywhere. It was going on for a few hours and the only thing that stopped it was going to the ER and getting a whole bottle of morphine to make my muscles stop reacting. I'm typically conscious and can talk but sometimes the shaking gets so intense it knocks me silly.
Avatar f tn This could be a simple case of orthostatic hypotension. While the other ideas are brilliant, let's look at horses before zebras. try sitting up first, then try to get up after five minutes. See if it improves. If not, then we are probably dealing with something else.
Avatar m tn I am thirteen, and for the past 2 months I have been really pale, tired and weak. 2 days ago I threw up 5 times and in the morning I woke up and was sitting on a chair and fainted, all color was drawn out of my face and my lips were blue. I was rushed to the hospital and they took ex-rays of my head and heart size everything was fine. My heart beat was 178 when I stood up and around 105 when laying down. They gave me fluids and said I was fine and sent me home.

Avatar f tn Having horses for many years I am certain it's fly allergies.You can put a fly mask on him during the day and take it off at night. If you are boarding have the care taker feeding the horses take it off for you and put it on in the mornings if your not there. In his morning grain you can give him benadrill about 4 pink pills once in the morning with his feeding or evening if he eats grain in the evening hours.

Avatar f tn Horses can lose weight for a variety of reasons. It is concerning that your horses are losing weight rapidly, and even dying. About food.. Have you weighed it out? The amount of food you feed one horse in a day should be about 2.5 percent of the horses' body weight (the weight you want teh horse to be). For a 1200 pound horse , that would be about 8.2kg (18.0lbs) of forage (hay) per day, and 5.5kg (12.0lbs) of concentrates(grain) per day. You should aways feed more hay than grain .
144586 tn?1284666164 The New York City Council passed a bill this month mandating blankets on working carriage horses during the winter. My 1875 cavalry manual states that working horses should under no circumstances be blanketed except in camp or stables. I'm interested in comments.
Avatar f tn The dizziness is almost always present when I am walking but not present when I am sitting down. I have never had an episode of fainting or sycope. The dizziness became so bad in August that I went to the ER. They did a CT scan w/o IV contrast and all restuls came back normal. They said it was probably just vertigo and encouraged me to follow up with a neurologist if things continued or got worse.
186166 tn?1385259382 I don't have horses but have always loved them. Last summer my husband worked at the race track and I got to visit the barns. They were standard bred horses for harness racing. They were so affectionate demanded attention. They would nuzzle my neck and some would lick me......almost like big goofy dogs :) The Clysdales came to visit and I got to "pet" them. They are really huge but also very friendly.
Avatar f tn I have always been prone to fainting due to being anemic so easily.. When I got pregnant it got worse and I fainted more.. I started taking iron capsules and pre natals with iron..
