I also had great results from SWF (Salt-Water-Flush) and am so glad you were willing to try a simple home remedy.
There are several simple methods which help the purchased products work and give you a little more control in how much you get rid of.(castor oil, Epsom Salt baths, hot and cold showers, sitz baths, alkaline balance, etc)
Congrats on your toilet treasures. Honestly, cleansing has made going to bathroom fun for me.
