Hello All,

I have been using a natural home made enema and my BM has fluctuated from 8-10 times with blood a day to 2-4 in the space of 2 days with no blood. This enema includes 1 and 1/2 teapoon black wallnut hull powder, 1 and 1/2 teaspoon clove powder (not food grade), and 2 capsules of wormwood powder. I mix this with mineral water and use it as an enema nightly. I went from having 20 seconds to run to the toilet urgency to almost no urgency at all in the space of 2 days! I haven't changed anything about my regimen so I am sure this is what is working. I am now wondering if it were parasites all along as these enema ingredients are anti parasitic not anti inflammatory! I hope to be back to remission in a weeks time. P.S before this flare I was in remission for 3 years due to smoking cigarettes. Thought I would share this to help someone incase it works.

Best health to all,

Very interesting. Please continue to update. I have also suspected a parasite myself (among other things). Hope it works.

@Uniform Charlie - Today is the 4th day using this enema, this morning was the first morning for a month (been flaring approx. a month) that I haven't had to use the bathroom. I am still seeing mucus but that should clear up soon.. at the end of the day ulcers done disappear that quick! I really don't know why this is working as like mentioned these herbs are anti parasitic not anti inflammatory. But hey ho, whatever works works I guess. If you end up doing this please let me know how you get on! I really can't believe in what state I was on Friday (8-10 times BM) to today not needing the bathroom in the morning. This just leads me to believe that the drugs being prescribed for us aren't directly for the problem some of us have (as I believe UC is probably caused by numerous things. allergies, pathogens, parasite, antibiotic flora change) I myself used anti biotic Tetracycline for 2 years for severe acne from ages 16-17 (I now have no acne but UC) I'm digressing a bit here but let me know if you try it how it goes.

Some of the stuff you are using is anti-inflammatory such a eugenol in cloves, there
may also be some other compounds in your mix that that reduce inflammation.

By the way my son was also on tetracycline when he got UC.
I was not, that I recall.

@Old Mike - Right, I didn't know that I thought it was only anti parasitic. Yes I believe 2 year use of Tetracycline gave me UC

I don't know what kind of acne medicine I used to take but I also took one, in pill form, for over a year. Another of my many theories on what caused my UC. Also had my first UC-like episode for several weeks following a trip to Dominican Republic, prior to diagnosis. This is why I've also suspected parasites.

Glad to hear your having such success!! I sometimes think that we can overdo things when we see that they are working, and that they are having positive results. I do think I would consider doing it every other night, and then maybe weekly.....just my 2 cents!

@Poppie - thanks for your opinion I shall do this, I have now returned back to 1-2 BM per day from 8-10 in a weeks time. Its amazing.

@Uniform Charlie - Yes I agree I think antibiotics defo gave me this **** no pun intended

Just tried your enema, holly s....., I know what to use for the prep next time. could only hold it for 30 min and then spent the rest of the day on the toilet. did you have this at the start?
Posted 11/25/2016 6:31 AM (GMT 0)
Delta - yes when i first started i was flaring and couldnt hold long at alll, i hope you have as much success as me

i hope so, did you have burning rectal pain too? it also so messy, i made it too thick at first and clogged the nozzle, then added too much water and it went everywhere, still on training wheels i guess
Posted 11/25/2016 7:14 AM (GMT 0)
Delta30 - yes it burned at first because of the clove i believe, i use a filter to stop the clogging

thanks i'll try. how are you going?
do you still use the enemas?
Posted 12/2/2016 4:56 PM (GMT 0)
@ delta30 - sorry have been on vacation hence haven't replied, no I haven't used the home made enema for about month and half and before that was just doing it spontaneously and still in full remission! I have just returned from vacation I got food poisoning and had badd diarrhea just gotten over it and bang! still in full remission stool back to normal (normal shape normal consistency) this has defo put me in remission!.. how are you getting along with this enema? hope your'e having the same success as I did.

I'm thinking of using a collidial silver enema for my abscess/fistulas...I couldn't find a formula online, but read people had done it with success.

Incidentally, my problem with UC, now CD started at 16 with a parasite. That was the trigger but I have a family history and took abx and Accutane for acne. If we knew then what we know now....

thanks for the reply. I've done 3 enemas, still trying to minimise the mess, but looks like it's helping, the pain is mostly gone, I am doing more solid BMs, i think amount of blood reduced too. but then again I am using home made suppositories in the morning and think they play positive role in this too. I'll keep up with enemas for a little longer and see if I have same results as you did (fingers cross).
UB Tough I've read about your struggles and very sorry you have to go through this, i wish you'll fined the solution soon and this pain would be gone forever.

@U B Tough - I have used colloidal silver enema but it did not help me unfortunately. @delta30 thats good news hope it works out for you
