I have had a couple of horses who had it and ran well afterwards, but we always had to feed and water at ground level after the surgery.
In the last year or so I have had really good luck treating for EPM if a horse started to show signs of a flapper issue. Turns out that several TB trainers down here will treat for EPM at the first sign of an airway issue. Doesn't always help but it's worth trying before a more invasive procedure.
