SCD 2 days, not totally compliant yet, need help deciphering resulting symptoms

[Guest guest]

Hi,

I have started my daughter on SCD for 2 days. We are still doing

intro diet and are not totally compliant yet. I have seen some

changes and need help on " deciphering " the changes.

Below is the diet she's on:

Breakfast: Boiled egg (for Friday) and scrambled egg (for Sarurday)

Lunch and dinner: Chicken broth with pieces of chicken and carrots.

(Broth was home made; with chicken, carrots, celery and onion)

Drink

Drink: Diluted home made apple juice, almond milk (store bought and

illegal since it contains brown rice sugar and xanthum gum), water.

Changes we saw:

1. More lethargic

2. A little more whinny on the 1st day but was better on the second

day

3. Diarrhea on Friday and was greenish in color. She seldom has

diarrhea. Usually she constipates. Formed stool on Saturday but has

two colors: grayish white on one part and brownish orange on the

other.

4. Increase night sweat.

Questions:

1. If I replace the almond milk with diluted home made apple juice,

could this be considered SCD compliant?

2. Is lethargy, whinny, weird color poop and increase night sweat a

normal reaction of starting SCD? Should the reaction be so soon? We

are only on it for 2 days and not even 100% compliant yet!

3. I'm very concern about the increase night sweat. She has always

sweat at night and we started Epsom Salt bath about 10 days ago (1/2

cup of Epsom salt in a children tub which is larger than baby tubs

but much smaller than a normal bath tub). The sweating seems to have

reduced a little but now with the introduction of SCD, it is worse

than before. Is this normal?

4. What's my next step? Go on to phase I? Stay on intro diet for a

few more days until we are 100% compliant? Should we start GSE? How

do I even know if she has yeast before testing?

5. The diet contains mainly chicken, carrot and eggs. Since I am to

introduce food very slowly, there will be very little variety.

Wouldn't having carrot everyday give too much vitamin A? What about

cholestrol from eggs?

6. Am I going crazy?

Sorry for such a long post and thank you so so soooo much for your

help.

Regards,
