Guest guest Posted August 10, 2009 Report Share Posted August 10, 2009 Hi there my name is and I am starting the 6th week of the SCD. I have had IBD/Crohn's/UC since 1998. I just started the diet at the end of a run of prednisone that I was put on after a hospital stay. When I started the diet I was symptom free, and remained that way for the first two weeks. I started to have some loose stool week 3, a couple times a week having to go to the bathroom more often than usual. In the last week I have started to have some cramping and a little mucus in my stool. None of this too intense, but definitely the feel of the old familiar symptoms starting to rear their heads. The book says that one usually knows if the diet is working after 4 weeks. My naturopath says he thinks it should be given more like 6. As I enter week 6 now, and I feel these symptoms starting to creep back, even though I have been diligently following the diet, I wonder if this is just not working for me.. So my question is how do I know when to say when??? IBD since 1998 on Asocol 9 a day Week 6 of SCD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
