My doctor was appalled that I take enemas

So has anyone told their doctor that they take enemas? I have chronic constipation and was diagnosed with Slow Transit Constipation and my doctor (a female that really like) shot me a look like my hair was on fire when I told her I took enemas on occasion. She did not really say anything after that and I think I added that I do that when things are really bad.

Another situation very recently was with another doctor who is a Colo-Rectal Surgeon my PCP wanted me to see. I went to him because of my ongoing issues with constipation. He was about 50 and really nice and easy to talk to and he had asked me what I have tried for handling my constipation issues. I ran down the litany of fiber supplements, laxatives, suppositories and of course told him I took soapsuds enemas. He was really astonished at that and was surprised I knew how to do that. He went on to say, Wow, I guess with the internet you can learn to do most anything. I then told him how I received them from my mom back in the day. Then he went on to say that maybe I have undiagnosed Hirschsprungs disease. We ultimately decided to go to Pelvic Floor biofeedback training with a physical therapist.

My doctor knows and approves, as he is aware of the Gerson therapy and (for me) the advantages of it. My medical records show the dramatic improvement of liver, pancreatic and kidney function.

My personal Doctor (Female physician) has known for many many years now (10+) because I'd mentioned it to her while in conversation over how I approach health related conditions. She made no negative remarks about the use & simply said after some open discussion that it's best not to overdo it. I probably shouldn't mention here but i'd like to over-do her . . .she's easy on the eyes😇

She'd probably be “Appalled” if she really knew what was going on in my mind at that time though - dirty bastard
