Has anyone had the FMT transplant for UC? If yes was it successful? Thanks

Thank you and I was exploring all options. I have read that FMT have good results.

@jjob73 I found this article about FMT and ulcerative colitis. It does sound like a good possibility for you. I’m not sure the procedure is out of clinical trials, though.

Is your doctor also in favor of this?
