From azcentral - from 2015:
The three-term congressman in an exclusive interview with The Arizona Republic vowed the condition wont keep him from serving or running for re-election in 2016.
Gosar, 56, said arthritis and two compressed vertebrae in his neck and lower back have caused nerve issues in his hand. The condition will require back surgery, which he hasnt scheduled. In addition, he is dealing with complications from a hip replacement last summer.
Im as healthy as a horse, he told The Republic earlier this month. Not gonna get rid of me that easily.

The only thing he has in common with a horse is the horse shit. Of course a horse drops his shit out the back end, but Gosar seems to prefer the front.
And all that rocking back and forth; he looked drunk to me.

Prior to its introduction there were parasites for which there was no effective treatment. Those would embed into the walls of the intestine and kill off segments.
Source: I can remember caring for horses before ivermectin was introduced and what a difference it made in horse care.
