I agree with what Beth Beymer said about thyro-l. It's worked wonders on my hypo-thyroid horse, with ouchyness and weight. He's not on pergolide. I also agree with her suggestion of trying the thyro-l separately for a while before adding the pergolide. I have two horses (Hanoverian age 24 and Appy age 26 ) with cushings, they've both been on pergolide for a couple of years with no ill effects. Prior to the pergolide I couldn't keep weight ON them, no matter how much I fed and neither shed their winter coats. The thyro-L helped keep weight down & the pergolide helped keep it up.
