Guest guest Posted June 28, 2009 Report Share Posted June 28, 2009 This morning I took a stool sample to send to a lab for my doc. I am working with a new doc now that I moved accross the country! So, anyway, I noticed black in it. Is that die off or is that bleeding higher up in my intestines? Could be dried blood, could be gunk from your intestines finally coming out, could be somehting you ate. You never know. I think you'll just have to see if it's a regular thing that keeps coming.

Guest guest Posted June 28, 2009 Report Share Posted June 28, 2009 Ok, so this does not necessarily mean the diet isn't working for me. If that happens, I don't know what I am going to do. The level of frustration I am at burns strong, but deep. I want this done. I am sure you can relate. Thanks!

Guest guest Posted June 28, 2009 Report Share Posted June 28, 2009 Hey Val.. Take a deep breath! You are only 7 days into the diet. It takes time. Some weird stuff can happen to your body as your gut ecology is shifting due to starving the bad bugs. Just follow the diet, progress slowly, hold off on advanced foods including nuts and take it day by day. If things get out of hand then go to your doctor. Many of us go through what you are experiencing.. It's just part of the process. Hang in there and don't worry too much! Jodi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
