Acceptance- choices- coffee

[Guest guest]

I am very new to all of this and quite honostly still in some level of

denial.

So many of you have written about the negative experiences you have had

with the Medical world, of which I am not inclinded to trust. In all

honesty how much has the Western Medical world helped you. Every time I

turn, some doctor is telling me I must get a colonoscopy. If I don't

want to go on meds and I don't want to treat it with their solutions

why?

Based on my sypmtoms I know I have IBD of some sort likely colitis. I

plan to stick to the SCD as diligently as I can and learn from you all.

I do not drink alcohol although I have in the past, but have abstained

for the last 3 years. My diet has been rich in organic fruits and

vegtables for several years and low in all the bad stuff. Obvioulsy, I

have been trying to figure out what the heck has happened to give me all

these problems over the past 2 months.

Two culprits:

1. coffee consumption

2. emotional stress and physical stress as an athlete.

If anyone can share his or her expierience on the above I would be very

grateful.

Burrows,

No meds
