Guest guest Posted September 10, 2008 Report Share Posted September 10, 2008 Hi Cindy, Sorry to hear about your bout with Cholangitis. Just curious if your doc will prescribe amoxicillian for you to have on hand in the event it happens again? My doc did that for me several years ago and it has saved me several trips to the ER. Hang in there and hope you get to feeling better!
