Clinical Signs: This gelding was noted to be "not quite right" by the owner a few days before he was examined by the veterinarian on September 23rd who diagnosed a low grade fever, muscle fasciculations of the triceps muscle and sore front feet. Upon re-examination a few days later, he was noted to have twitching of the lower lip and ataxia. He has since recovered.
