Gastric ulcers

[Daisybromley24]

My Warmblood Gelding has recently been showing signs of ulcers, for example he used to get extremely excited for his dinner and now he won’t and will leave a tiny bit at the bottom, the past week he has been swishing his tail and flicking his back end when doing his girth up, riding wise he is only good doing flatwork and hacking he now refuses to jump and do polework
He is fed on Alfa A oil, top spec comprehensive balancer, conditioning cubes and hay and hayledge
He is a very stressful boy and has bad anxiety so we have put him on a calmer anyway, am I being paranoid or should I call a vet? Thank you

I would get the vet - he is trying to tell you something. How long has he been refusing to jump etc. for?

For around a month now he had gotten worse with it and won’t even walk over a pole now

Yes, if he was mine, I'd get the vet, especially if he's getting worse.
