crohns disease and portal hypertension

[Guest guest]

Ihave had crohns for 25 years and its fairly maintained BUT now have

portal hypertension. The vein leans agianst the bile ducts casuing

clogging(gall baldder was roemoved) I still have to have ERCPS to

clear the stones and sludge. I m hesitant to do this but it seems the

only way to clear the ducts. I have no other medical alternatives. MY

medical options have been life thratening surgery for the vein BUT if

I dont have an ERCP done I wont bleed(fingers crossed) tat sees to be

the only time i DO bleed SO I need ot keep those ducts cleanand

clear! what syour take? should I? too risky? what?

Perhaps a gentle form of cleansing would be better

for you so as not to aggravate the crohns...I say that because

I am guessing that the Epsom Salt purging before the

flush may be to much? I have seen some suggest taking

a couple of teaspoons or a tablespoon of olive oil

and stirring into a cup of chamomile tea with fresh lemon

juice from about 1/4 of a lemon...the chamomile will relax

the intestinal system, and oil and lemon juice aid in cleansing.

You should also be getting your good oils like lecethin

and perhaps flax seed oil, I like flax seed oil as it has

anti-inflammatory properties as well as the Omegas.

Since you don't have your gallbladder to collect stones,

it seems gentler forms of cleansing may work for you.
