Guest guest Posted May 18, 2010 Report Share Posted May 18, 2010 Dear , My heart goes out to you. sounds incredibly exhausting. I wonder if you can tolerate scd jello? I find it gut soothing. Maybe after some more time of your equivalent of scd intro, you can choose one food to try again. best wishes, Ruth Re: SymptomsPosted by: " " yuzogina@... yuzoginaMon May 17, 2010 7:22 pm (PDT) Licia, thank you so much for your reply! I can't find a solution to find foods that fill us up that don't cause reactions. We tried goat yogurt, bananas, avocados, pumpkin, nut butter, seed butter, and cheese. We also can't tolerate shellfish, fish, possibly eggs. And now because there is an outbreak of illness among the cows and pigs, DH doesn't want me to chance eating beef or pork! DS is 17 months old. Tried to introduce solids at 6 months, but he got reactions, so only just recently tried introducing solids again. Everything pureed and cooked, he can't tolerate it otherwise. Except I just started a few fruits like melon and apricot, but if I give too much, he gets yeasty. He reacts to foods individually himself, and also to my milk if I ate something I didn't tolerate. Foods we both tolerate: green beans, asparagus, zucchini, cucumber, beef, pork, and octopus. Thanks for the oatmeal advice, I think that sounds great and will give it a try! I don't know if there really is a solution to my problem, since there are only so many foods, and if neither of us can tolerate it, well, no one can magically create more foods to appear for us, .... so perhaps, this is just a sob story looking for commiseration. But still, some days, I barely have energy and feel faint because not only is it all non-filling foods, but having to do all that extra work and take time to prep DS's food, sometimes, I don't even get a chance to prep my own food, which also is so much more extra work since everything is all fresh, not processed. Also using up so much more energy now that I am dealing with a toddler who is so active and walking all over the place. & DS Rocky SCD journey which started 8/09 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
