I'm so happy as my mare tested negative for both stomach and hind gut ulcers today! I also took her to a SJ clinic on Sat and she is back to normal jumping and no disuniting on right rein! Vet and I have decided to stop the succeed supplement now but I will keep her on exactly the same ad lib hay regime but now soaking it in a hay cube, dengie healthy tummy and hemp oil. She should be out 24/7 by end of March and if symptoms start again next Autumn then I will put her back onto succeed again :-)
 
that's excellent!

I'm seriously thinking about getting mine done, my vet previously said they don't think it's reliable but if I insist they will have to do it. I have a hind gut issue boy who I seem to have under control but remains on Equishure indefinitely. I'm very curious to see a result for him and my mare - did you use GG for the foregut ulcers? Did you scope first or just use the Succeed test?

My vet just did the succeed test and my insurance company was fine about that. I just used succeed but did carefully change my feeding regime as my mare is a very greedy, good doer.
Breakfast - 1/2 scoop of happy tummy with 15ml of Hemp oil.
Night - 1/2 scoop of healthy tummy, 1/2 scoop fast fibre, pro balance min and vits, salt, then succeed as top dressing after feed soaked and mixed. One trickle net of hay, one normal net of hay, 1/2 trug of chopped hay/ straw chaff and one meadow hifi grass block. I have now changed nets of hay to hay cube with soaked hay. I also gave hay and small feed of happy tummy before riding.
