Immodium & Fresubin, Should I Take ? Worried Bout Surgery

May 16, 2010

Hi my doctors have me on these for my chrons, immodium for my severe diorreha

and fresubin drinks for calories as my weight is under 7 stone where my normal

healthy weight is usually 9 and a half to 10 stone ( i have had a bad 2 years

and things are not improving as im not responding to humira therefore been on

and off prednisilone for the last year and a half and im worried as they dont

dont seem to be helping my weight gain or my diorreha, I've been on scd over 3

weeks now and as i cant go too advanced on the more high calorie foods im

actually losing that bit more weight.

My scd diet consists of (For breakfast), butter & chedder cheese in my scrambled

eggs.(For lunch), chicken soup. yoghurt,honey and banana smoothie(small amounts

after my meals),(For dinner)pureed carrots,steam cooked veg of

tomatoes,onions,peppers,squash,mushrooms with either burger patties,boiled or

roast chicken breast,turkey,grilled salmon,tuna(tinned in sun F oil).(For

drinking) juiced grapes and juiced apples,ginger & peppermint tea. Ive even made

scd sandwich bread,mayonnaise,and cinnamon cookies which contain almound flour

even though almound flour is advanced at stage 1.

So should i take immodium to help the diorreha and more importantly the frsubin

drinks to help me gain weight again, I'l list ingredients of the fresubin drink

below,

Any help would be greatly appreciated, Thanks Mark. (p.s sorry for long post)
