Guest guest Posted July 7, 2005 Report Share Posted July 7, 2005 Katrhyrn There is something about sphincter of Oddi and bile duct spasms that laying down flat makes worse. The pain, at least in my case, if it is going to hit will do it in the middle of the night. What works for me is if as soon as I feel that coming on or it wakes me up or whatever, get out of that bed and on my feet as quick as I can. That seems to relieve it quicker, at least now. I have had enough therapy over the years that I get long term relief but if you are still having really tight bile duct problems, it may not work until you get most of that straightend out.
