Guest guest Posted June 11, 2010 Report Share Posted June 11, 2010 I was recently diagnosed with Chrons disease (at the age of 30) and recenly ran accross " Breaking the Vicious Cycle " . I am really excited about starting the book and the recipes dont look too bad..though I am really going to miss ice cream etc. I was always a big foodie so this is a big change for me...though I have always liked cooking so maybe it wont be too bad?? I think I need to give SCD try because nothing else seems to be working. My main problem is the stomach cramps!!!!! They are pretty much unbearable. I sit at work with a heating pad on my stomach (I refuse to stay home) and my poor fiance has been locked up inside with me because I am in too much pain to enjoy going out. I tried Lialda first and when they didnt work I was perscribed Imuran...which the side effects have scared the heck out of me...So I decided to try a few other approaches. Acupuncture and SCD are next on the list. I ordered the book on Amazon (should be here by the end of the month) but I want to start to try to wean myself off of " illegal " foods asap. I bought some Habenero cheese from the Amish Bakery in my building. Do you think that would be ok for lunch? Some cheese and grapes with water?? Any other ideas? We are ordering in today from the deli and I think I should stay away...any help would be super apprciated! Thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
