Guest guest Posted January 7, 2003 Report Share Posted January 7, 2003 Are they stomach ulcers or varicose ulcers? Jo I have a friend whose father has bleeding ulcers and he refuses modern medical treatments. We have tried to get him to go to the doctor and he refuses. He did not object, however, to trying an herbal treatment. I know of a few teas that might ease his problem, but I am not aware of anything that will treat it properly. Is there anything we can do? ---Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).Version: 6.0.435 / Virus Database: 244 - Release 30/12/02 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 7, 2003 Report Share Posted January 7, 2003 No, I don't know of any adequate treatment and definitely think he should get medical help, in the absence of knowing what else to do. If he totally refuses, I'd give him a teaspoon of slippery elm 3x daily to at least soothe the intestinal mucosa somewhat. I'd also make sure he's getting iron if the blood loss is significant. He can be given iron rich foods and have foods cooked in cast iron as a starter. Suzan --- senar alksinders <senar_alksinders w Mail Plus - Powerful. Affordable. Sign up now. http://mailplus.

Guest guest Posted January 7, 2003 Report Share Posted January 7, 2003 According to a book I have by Dr. Earnie Raab, enzyme tablets, vitamin C, fiber, OPC's, MSM and glucosamine/chondroitin help with ulcers.

Guest guest Posted January 8, 2003 Report Share Posted January 8, 2003 Eventually, he will go to a doctor...probably by way of the Emergency Room.
