Booked Nadia in for Tildren treatment

[claireandnadia]

Well popped to the vets today to pick up some Glucosamine and also to book Nadia in for the Tildren treatment, she's booked in for Monday. Was a bit shocked as i thought it'd be the end of next week.
Anyway...why do I feel so bad, I feel like I've sentenced her to the side affects colic and a heartattack. I'm petrified.
I know I have to stay positive and think that it's going to help with the arthritis but I feel terrible.

Dont worry, vets automatically give an anti-colic injection before they administer the tildren.

Lady has had tildren twice and never suffered any side effects, 2 other horses I know who have had tildren have also never suffered any side effects.

I think they just have to tell you about side effects to cover there backsides, but I really wouldnt worry about it.

I know.....I've asked so many people and no-one has told me that their horse had a heart attack but a few people said about mild colic. Someones horse must have had a heart attack for the vets to say it could happen.
Anyway, enough of negative thinking....my baby is going to be fine and I'm going to bring her home Monday night and spoil her loads, although she couldn't be more spoilt....lol

What do they do? I've never heard of it before

I am interested in what it is too! Cossack has arthritis and I am always keen to hear about anything that may help.
