Hey there-Pistol sounds like quite the handful! It's been a while since you posted this and I'm hoping you've gotten some help already. I just read this a couple of days ago because i was curious, I am by no means an expert. I just got my 'first' horse recently also, so I've been doing a lot of reading. Coincidentally, mine has an awful case of rain rot too, I'd love to hear what you used for it and how it worked for you. Anyway...I was reading yesterday about vaccines and the diseases they prevent. This caught my eye and made me think of you, "Stricken horses may lose their appetite, display excitable or compulsive behavior, and walk blindly into objects." This is part of a description of Equine Encephalomyelitis ("sleeping sickness", I found it in a pamphlet distributed by Fort Dodge Animal Health. Good luck.
