Dr.O, Would you explain to me what the subject actually is? Sierra has been diagnosed with arthritis in fetlock joints, hock and knee all on L. side, with a notation by vet "almost appears like fibrotic myopa}thy in gait but not palpable". I didn't see the note until after she left. Thanks much, Shirl

Even better we have a whole article on the subject including a description of the gait, see Equine Diseases » Lameness » Diseases of the Upper Rear Limb » Fibrotic or Ossifying Myopathy & Myositis.
