Who has had a fecal transplant?

rachelravenMember

I don't need one, but we might be starting to do them at my hospital, which means that I will be administering them to my patients.

A lot of my coworkers are sort of squeamish about it all, so I told them I'd ask on here for some info from the peanut gallery. Mostly I see it given by enema, and it's around 2 oz., right?

What have been your experiences, if you've had one? Good? Bad? Work or not work? I want to pass on to people the benefits of it... I don't want them to get all wigged out over sommething very simple!

There are many threads about fecal transplants on the Healing Well, Ulcerative Colitis forum. There are links to various protocols and lots of anecdotal reporting from those who have done it. Hope this helps. I wanted my daughter to try it before deciding on surgery, but she was not willing.
