Hi

I was interested in finding out about Colonic Hydrotherapy.  Dr B has advised not to have this treatment and I completely follow her advice as she has helped me SO much.  However, I am interested in why this is not a good treatment for those of us with IC. Dr B said it could set off some other reactions - anyone know what they are?  This is purely me trying to understand things a bit more, and I know that she can't possibly have time to answer every single topic!  Anyone know??

I think it's bc it destroys the beneficial flora we are trying so hard to replenish and sets us up for more severe bacterial  imbalance. I have often wanted to try this myself but she always says no. I also think it can create toxins coming out too quickly and trigger more illness and symptoms.
