Probiotic implant

Gonewiththewind44 profile image

I am seriously considering colonic irrigation. I know I would be nervous about this but am desperate now. The lady I have read about is a member of the ‘colonic association ‘ and she also offers a service whereby she puts a implant into the colon which slowly releases million of good bacteria. Has anyone tried this?

I haven't tried this but did have the peristeen system of anal irrigation which I did myself at home. It helped at the time until I sorted out what was wrong with me. Hope it helps you.

Doing colonic irrigation for 4 years - every day - poor mebut in my case it is the ONLY WAY. Think and talk to the nhs - I DID STILL IN A MESS BUT THERE WAS NO ALTERNATIVE.
