An Epsom Salt Enema Put Me in the Hospital
Health May 27th. 2009, 5:04amI should have listened to my gut which told me that doing a regular enema with plain old water would have been better than doing an epsom salt enema. But I didn’t listen to my own instincts and I went ahead with the salt one and ended up spending an hour and a half in the hospital, hooked up to an IV because I was very dehydrated. The doctor told me what I of course suspected. My dehydration was due to the enema that I had performed the day before. I will never make that mistake again and I will not perform any types of enemas in the future.
