Is your horse a AQHA horse or Appaloosa? There is genitc desease(sp) call HYPP. If your horse has Impressive in her back ground she may be showing symptoms of it. Thier is an inexpensive test your vet can do to see if she has the genitic markers for it. Many times it can be controled by diet. If your horse is not registered, she may still have Impressive in her background, as not all horses that carry it show it, and many AQHA horses "lost" thier papers. Good luck.
