Thank you for the info. My GI doctor said he hadn’t heard of vanco for PSC. I’m not entirely surprised but it is very disheartening. I had been following the vancomycin success thread and it had given me hope. When I asked him to prescribe it and he said no, it was a real ptsd moment. So I decided instead of wasting time trying to find a doctor here in the midwest, I’d just go ahead and travel to a doctor that has experience prescribing it.

Thank you again!

Oh I meant to ask… has anyone had any experience with Cleveland Clinic and vanco prescriptions? I’m headed there soon to make sure my PSC is not a PSC/PBC overlap. I’m hoping they will be open to prescribing it.

Thanks again!

Cleveland will not prescribe. I am in the Cincy area too. Dr Lammert in Indianapolis will prescribe!
