because you said yourself, no one knows til it happens if it'll happen. you also said lasix doesn't harm a horse.

if there is potential harm if you don't use it, and no harm if you use it, why wait?


and 'everybody knows'? makes you wonder why then that some choose not to use it. or maybe that's because everyone doesn't know that. perhaps they paid attention to all the studies linked in the last week or so that said there is no advantage. but then, even tho there is proof there can be permanent lung damage from a severe enough bleeding episode, you're still insisting otherwise.
