Re: New to SCD................bifidus and VSL#3.................thanks

[Guest guest]

- the most important thing by far is that you are feeling better and I am

sure the vast majority of people here are delighted for you.

It is great that you shared your positive experience with VSL#3 because just

maybe it will help somebody else. We all know that there are no things that will

help everybody, but if people's tips and advice help just one person then it is

worth it.

The reason that we are all here is because we want to get better. I would eat

dog xxxx if I thought it would make me better.............but I would need some

persuading first! Talking of which I am seriously thinking of trying fecal

transplantation but I am wondering if it is legal or not?

Anyway well done for sharing your positive results. Hope the improvement

continues.

Good luck.

Talking of which I am seriously thinking of trying fecal transplantation but I am wondering if it is legal or not?SCD legal? I'm assuming its fine, since you aren't actually ingesting anything. From looking at Wikipedia, it looks like it's been very successful in UC; if you do decide to go this route let us know how it goes!!! It might be just the thing to get some people jump started in healing. Peace =)Alyssa 16 yo UC April 2008, dx Sept 2008SCD June 2009 (restarted)Azathioprine 75 mg 1x per dayPrednisone 30 mg 1x per day
