Hi all My 13yr old has recently been diagnosed with PSC with also ulcerative colitis - as you can imagine it's a real worrying time although he is largely asymptomatic following our wonderful treatment at birmingham childrens - Does anyone have any thoughts and ideas about diet that I could use to help him out Or any cheery suggestions Becky ---

Hi. Try asking your doctor about vancomycin. My daughter is 7, diagnosed with PSC at 5. Just started vancomycin in June this year. Roughly every 6 weeks since June, we are seeing GGT blood readings drop by about 30%. Praise the Lord! ---

hey thank you! not heard of vancomycin - son is on urso and mesalazine at the moment - his readings seem fairly stable and we're more with gastro than liver team at the moment - any diet tips?
