Can die-off start the first day?

[Guest guest]

Hi. My 12y/od CD and I (no condition, just doing SCD for support) just started

the diet this morning with eggs and gelatin which went down fine. At about 3 pm

we ate the chicken soup and 30 min. later a bite of the DCCC cheesecake with a

tsp of yogurt. She told me she felt nauseous after eating both the soup and

dccc/yog. Could this be die-off already? I wouldn't expect her to be nauseous

from the organic chicken soup with carrot puree). I, too feel a little queasy

and a slight stomach ache, but she went right to bed for a nap. I think she is

worried she is starting to feel like she used to when she was first diagnosed.

(She hasn't had any major symptoms for months - no C,D, or tummy aches, but once

in a while she does get nauseous).

I should also mention that she stopped taking her meds (38 mg 6 mp) earlier this

week (per doctor's orders because her white blood cell count was way down). He

wanted her to start again at 25 mg on Friday but we held off hoping that she

could start SCD during our little " holiday " from the 6mp and hopefully never go

back. I understand it is ok to quit 6mp without dosing down - has anybody done

this and did they experience any side effects?

Thank you in advance for your help. I don't want this first setback to derail

us.
