Guest guest Posted March 19, 2010 Report Share Posted March 19, 2010 Yes, HANG IN THERE! My 3-month flare lasted for 5 weeks. Ugh. But at that point, I had such a positive experience leading up to it, that I was not going to give in to those nasty bugs! Keeping a journal of how often I was going to the bathroom a day really helped me. I could see all of the progress I made before the flare, and I could tell when I was coming out of it. Don't give up! -Joanna SCD 9/2009, Crohn's 1992, 27.5mg prednisone > > Your probably going through what many know as the 3 month flare. Just cut back like you did on basic, easy to digest foods and you should come out of it. Some people go through it at 3,6,9 12 months. Don't quit your right on schedule.

Guest guest Posted March 19, 2010 Report Share Posted March 19, 2010 I've been on SCD for a year, and still having a bad flare that's lasted almost 2 whole months now. I'm on prednisone as well as some other stuff. It takes a long time to work, and there are plenty of setbacks. Try going on pecanbread.com and eating foods from some lower stages like stage 1 and 2. I haven't eaten raw fruit or any nuts in over a year!-UC - 1+ yearsSCD - 8 months 100% strict and 4 months restricted diet.Asacol - 12 pills a day Prednisone 40mg entocort With vit E mixed inBack to intro/stage 1 for now.To: BTVC-SCD ; scdinfo@...From: scd143@...Date: Fri, 19 Mar 2010 08:04:07 -0700Subject: Please help... SCD worked great for 3 months and I was able to eat nuts and delicious recipes from the books. One flare up, and I am back to the same old story. It's been three months now, I am on and off to flare-ups. I have stopped nuts, few vegetables,fruits that I thought was a culprit. I saw my doctor and he prescribed "prednisone". I feel like giving up. I need help in determing if I am on the right track. I am tired of eating Chicken soup and vegetables saute. Please help me Thanks Hotmail has tools for the New Busy.
