Need some encouragement/advice

March 30, 2010

I'm sure this same type of message has been posted many times, but I would

really appreciate any advice/encouragement right now. Also, I am definitely not

as sick as many of you here, so I'm feeling a little like I'm being a cry

baby...

My background:

I have lymphocytic microscopic colitis and have been on SCD for 2 months. When

I first started SCD and was on the intro diet I also had to do a cleanse for a

colonoscopy so don't know if that affected my results at the time. I saw some

improvement, but not a lot during intro (less frequency). After the

colonoscopy, I continued SCD, limiting honey, fruit and high carb veggies and

had amazing results. There was a 1 1/2 week period where I would consider that

I was almost " normal " , going one time a day/formed BM.

In the last month I've had a couple setbacks, but nothing really bad where I was

able to get back to " normal " just by cutting back on honey, fruits, etc. again.

However, a flare started about a week ago that has continued to get worse to the

point of me losing count how many times a day I'm going and back to water D. I

started the intro diet again on Sunday and can say that so far today I've only

gone two times, but it is still water.

Sorry this is so long, I'd appreciate any thoughts/advice.
