Guest guest Posted December 1, 2007 Report Share Posted December 1, 2007 Thank you for the welcome to the group. I appretiate the advice. I'll be meeting with my new GI Dr. This coming Friday, so I'll be armed with questions. I'm also having an ERCP Friday and I'm so nervous about the procedure, it sounds horrible. I started on Urso this week only 10mg/kg/day so I will be asking for higher dose. I also was having a hard time with itching and not much helping it, so I tried a tanning bed twice this week and have had NO itching since then. I can't get over how much better I feel since I'm not spending half my nights awake itching. I have much more energy. If you have any more advice for my Dr. appt. I would appreciate it.

Guest guest Posted December 1, 2007 Report Share Posted December 1, 2007 Hi , Make sure they knock you right out for the ERCP. Ask for lots of sedative! Good luck. > > Thank you for the welcome to the group. I appretiate the advice. I'll > be meeting with my new GI Dr. This coming Friday, so I'll be armed with > questions.

Guest guest Posted December 2, 2007 Report Share Posted December 2, 2007 , ERCP sounds horrible, but I have only good memories about the ERCPs I had. I always felt better after an ERCP than before, and the throat discomfort is a small price to pay for that. Please make sure to find someone with enough experience with the procedure.
