Annapuma, a Thoroughbred mare, with colic.
“Annapurna is a wonderful Thoroughbred mare who is now retired from her successful jumping career. She first coliced when she was in her late stages of pregnancy. That is not unusual for a pregnant mare and it was not a bad colic so I was not too worried. However, a month after her lovely filly was born the bad colics started. She had two horrible colics back to back. The vet suspected that Anna had an enterolith from her symptoms but could not be sure without hauling her into the hospital for a special type of x-ray. (Enteroliths are stones that form around a foreign object in a horse’s intestines much in the way a pearl is formed around a grain of sand in an oyster.) The only cure the vet offered was surgery to remove the stone. Anna was not a candidate for surgery due to the fact that she had broken her leg in her stall during this period also. The break was healing but the vet felt Anna would rebreak her leg waking up from the anesthesia. Anna had a couple more colic sessions that weren’t too bad and then a third terrible colic. The vet did not have much hope she would recover and even if she did the bouts of colic would continue. By then I had met Lynn so I called her. Lynn scanned Anna energetically and determined that Anna had three stones. She did some energy work on Anna and fairly soon my dear mare was on her feet again. Lynn said Anna’s PH in her body was not right and suggested I give her apple cider vinegar to help straighten it out. I don’t know if Anna still has stones in her intestines. If she does, they aren’t bothering her. She has not coliced in a long time. We are back to work doing dressage and going on trail rides. I am convinced Annapurna would not be alive and thriving without Lynn’s help.” -Jane Goth, California
