Thanks for the Reply Rickey.

Duly noted all respects. I am well over having it done without sedation , roughly every 6 weeks.

Much rather this less traumatic approach , on a daily basis.

I've had quite a few good pointers from this Site.

I live approximately 20 miles South of Hobart , in Tasmania.

We don't know of anyone, locally that does self dilatation, there might not even be anyone.

Cheers and Thanks
Bruce

I don't know of anyone anywhere near me who self dilates. My GI doctor told me how to do it and watched me do it the first time and since then I have done it without instruction. I too was having to dilate every 6 weeks. After being sedated and dilated 10 times I decided I had to do something else. All of my other doctors are amazed that I self dilate. Good luck.
