can you email me the research and any info you got before you did this . and the procedure you used . tks

How did you do it? Could you explain how you infused the matter into your colon? Did you do it by enema?

Fascinating, thanks for the post. I expect something like this is close to how people might have naturally dealt with problems of intestinal flora thousands of years ago. Or at least one method. :-)

This I have found in MEDLINE, using the key words

BACKGROUND: Although the etiology of idiopathic ulcerative colitis (UC) remains poorly understood, the intestinal flora is suspected to play an important role. Specific, consistent abnormalities in flora composition peculiar to UC have not yet been described, however Clostridium difficile colitis has been cured by the infusion of human fecal flora into the colon. This approach may also be applicable to the treatment of UC on the basis of restoration of flora imbalances. GOAL: To observe the clinical, colonoscopic and histologic effects of Human Probiotic Infusion s (HPI) in 6 selected patients with UC. CASE REPORTS: Six patients (3 men and 3 women aged 25-53 years) with UC for less than 5 years were treated with HPI. All patients had suffered severe, recurrent symptoms and UC had been confirmed on colonoscopy and histology. Fecal flora donors were healthy adults who were extensively screened for parasites and bacterial pathogens. Patients were prepared with Antibiotics and oral polyethylene glycol lavage. Fecal suspensions were administered as retention enemas within 10 minutes of preparation and the process repeated daily for 5 days. By 1 week post-HPI some symptoms of UC had improved. Complete reversal of symptoms was achieved in all patients by 4 months post-HPI, by which time all other UC medications had been ceased. At 1 to 13 years post-HPI and without any UC medication, there was no clinical, colonoscopic, or histologic evidence of UC in any patient. CONCLUSIONS: colonic infusion of donor human intestinal flora can reverse UC in selected patients. These anecdotal results support the concept of abnormal bowel flora or even a specific, albeit unidentified, bacterial pathogen causing UC.

what is the treatment? My daughter has uc and chrons... both. thank you.
Ali

after the fecal implantation? Very curious tohow things are going, whether they continue to be successful or not. About to attempt the implantation myself.
