How can I tell If I am getting better when my meds have UC under control

[Guest guest]

Hi,

SCD for about a month. Started over this week as I tended to eat everything

legal all at once. My question is this. How do I know if I am getting better

on this diet if my meds have the illness pretty much under control. When I

first started SCD I stopped my Meds (Asacol) and the D came back. Now that I am

back on them it has lessened. How do I know I am healing and that it is ok to

progress to stage 1 if the meds are masking my true reactions?

Confused?

Thanks,

Phil
