Re: Still watery stool like black tar continues

[Guest guest]

Kristie,

I do not think that black tarry stool is a normal thing at this point. We might

see that very briefly in a kid, just at the very beginning of starting SCD.....

as there are a lot of changes going on in their digestive tract..... so we hear

reports of all kinds of crazy colors. But this should not go on very long at

all.

Here is what I just copied after a Google search:

<<A black stool usually means that the blood is coming from the upper part of

the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. This includes the esophagus, stomach, and the

first part of the small intestine. Blood will typically look like tar after it

has been exposed to the body's digestive juices. Stomach ulcers caused by

ibuprofen, naproxen, or aspirin are common causes of upper GI bleeding. >>

If bleeding is what's going on for your son, the Advil was definitely not a good

thing....because the drug itself could trigger more bleeding, but if you gave

the kid version of the Advil with sugar in it, that could have set you back in

terms of making progress on SCD, too.

I honestly think you need to find out if in fact there is some bleeding going

on, and that's just something that's beyond our ability to confirm for you. I

just don't think this is within the realm of what we typically see for a kid in

the third week of SCD.

Food-wise, I am uncomfortable with the " Italian seasoning " and " Herbs de

provence " you're using. Spice or herb blends are not advisable.... possibly

illegal. You want to use just plain oregano, basil, etc. The individual herbs.

Purchase them separately.... not in pre-mixed blends.

For a kid who is this new to the diet, and having this much trouble, I would NOT

use herbs AT ALL..... unless I just put them in the cooking pot tied up in

cheesecloth bundles.... and could pull them out and throw them away before

serving... if he simply won't eat anything without those particular flavors. I

would suggest something like whole sprigs of fresh rosemary, stuffed inside a

chicken before you roast it.... that you toss out, and don't eat.

Also.... I would avoid frying any of his food at this point. Boiling,

slow-cooking in a crock pot, poaching, broiling or baking are preferred methods

for meats at this point...... and boiling, steaming, baking or slow-cooking for

veggies and fruits, too.

Is zucchini truly the only vegetable he has currently been eating up to this

point?

Still watery stool like black tar continues

Hi all! We still have our guy going on SCD and he has black tar

watery stool (lovely). So bad that last night in his sleep he went

and it went through his clothes and onto the sheets. We had to wake

him up and change him and give him a bath and change sheets and

such.

What we are feeding him: oil we use: coconut to cook with made by

Spectrum. He eats chicken pancakes, hamburger patties, baked

zucchini (peeled and deseeded yes), applesauce homemade, banana,

chicken patty, eggs

Herbs used by Spice Hunter: Italian seasoning and Herbs de provence.

Also sea salt and pepper.

Drinks: white or dark grape juice by Welches only watered down with

Arrowhead Water! We did make the lemonade but that day was a very

bad stool so my mom suggested holding off on that for a bit.

We are to introduce a new vegetable today. This is week three of SCD

and I would say his stool has stayed pretty consistently bad. He

also got sick two days ago with a cold, fever, and not feeling good.

I gave him Advil for Children but this is probably wrong and not

legal. Sorry I didn't know what to do.

Okay so who would I go too to figure this out..if there is bleeding

and such within his gut?

We started carrots yesturday. I am starting a new fruit and

vegetable three days apart so we are on vegetable number two now.

I contacted Spice Hunter and their organic herbs have NOTHING added

to them and no pesticides no starches just the herb itself. I will

consider eliminating this but I am not certain that is the problem.

I realize Advil (Children's liquid) is illegal but he is obviously

in pain and his back molars are coming in now too.

Hope you guys can help. Thanks Patti for addressing this.

I'm wondering if you need to schedule an appointment with a pediatric GI doc or

just your regular ped or DAN doc to discuss what might need to be checked on.

Kristie,

I am echoing what Patti mentiined. Black stool can be a sign of internal

bleeding. If this

continues, please see a doctor. In the meantime, I suggest going on the

introductory diet

for a few days.

Kristie,

I'd start with the family doctor unless you have a DAN or your pediatrician.

What was the

stool like before SCD?

I can't imagine SCD causing bleeding.... but this really is not okay, and is

highly unusual. Your pediatrician would know what next step to take.... of

course, he/she might think SCD was a crazy diet to put your child on, so if you

have a doctor who supports the diet, I would turn there first. It might be

something like a stomach ulcer.... or??? They may need to look down there with

a scope or something. I'm sure there will be stool tests that need to be done,

etc. How is your child FEELING?? Energy-wise? Weight? Other symptoms?

This is a difficult question because he has had the cold issues and

molar coming in issue since Tuesday or Monday evening of this week.

He has had a runny nose, been more moody and even crying at night

when we put him in his room (highly unsual for him). Last night we

put him down at 8 PM. He cried and screamed and after about 30

minutes we went back in and discovered he had a bowel movement that

had went through his diaper just barely (the black liquid tar

stool). We cleaned him up and put him back down. Still crying 20

minutes in we went in and discovered he had urinated and it went

through these clothes. Cleaned up put back down and he cried like in

pain. We gave the Children's Advil and after another 20 minutes the

crying went down to whimpers and then sleep. All of that highly

unusual for him. Earlier on in the week the stool came out in his

sleep and went on bed and sheets. We had to wake him up and give him

a bath, clean everything and that was not easy. He has just been

more moody and a bit more lethargic yes. Definitely he had a

distended belly prior to SCD and it is coming down quite a bit. I

haven't weighed him so I don't know his weight but I would say now

less than 47 pounds which is where he was pre SCD (at age

3.7...always been off the charts for weight since two weeks after

birth).

I did call a GI hotline through a local hospital and a GI got back

to me and let me know if I felt he was lethargic to an extreme I

should go to the ER. She said if not go see a regular pediatrician

for stool sample first. I also emailed our DAN physician out here

and hopefully will hear from her too. I utilize www.tacanow.com

resource list and hopefully the pediatrician on there won't feel the

SCD diet is crazy because I KNOW what I am feeding him is healthy

and definitely much better than his diet prior to SCD of rice milk,

French Fries, rice noodles and potatoe chips.

When I know more I will get back to you all. Thanks for suggestions

thus far.

Some of these kids are having a hard time with the carrots. I know my dd used to

at the beginning. I wouldn't do the fruits at all. Just the veggies and maybe a

little fruit juice just to get the carbs. Is he taking any magnesium? That will

help a bit. I recommend the magnesium taurate. My dd takes it. It will help

things move out a little faster so you won't see the black tarry stool. For my

dd, the black, tarry stools were too much protein, Constipation, ammonia due to

all the protein and the goat yogurt helped with the C as well. The black could

be occult blood but, if it comes out neg. tomarrow, I would put him through an

all-natural parasite cleanse. This was step #1 for us after the diet. I had K on

SCD for over 6 months before her scopes. She was nutritionally sound at that

point but, still had those black stools now & then. And the stench! You can use

some clove oil in a carrier to put on your finger and numb the area where the

tooth is coming in. Also, if the symptoms match, Belladona will also help with

tooth pain. It is a homeopathic remedy avail. at the health food store probably.

This is where I got ours when we need it. If that doesn't work, Advil may be

necessary. I use it as a last resort now. Also, no antibiotics! These kids GI's

suffer terribly over those things and they don't always work. Balancing meat,

veggies, fruit juice(mixed with water half and half) & fats is very important in

every meal. Have you done enzymes with him? I would hold off on those for the

time being. You could try pumpkin for his next veggie. This will help with

parasites if there is any. Most of our ASD kids have bacteria, worms & /or yeast

problems. Maybe it would also help if you were a member of other all-natural

care boards also. Is he feverish? How many times does he go a day? I hope you

have a good night tonight and get some real help tomarrow. Poor baby. Jenn L

Jenn,

I agree with your statement about the carrots.... that's true. But, I not

comfortable with just generally recommending that parents should not use fruits

at all. This is not something we usually suggest when counseling SCD families.

It's true that *some* have had to cut back a bit on fruits and honey, IF they

have a huge problem with yeast... but we don't really tell anyone " don't do

fruit " across the board. In most cases, cooked fruits are an excellent food for

beginners.... many are well tolerated.

thanks,

Patti

Re: Re: Still watery stool like black tar continues

Some of these kids are having a hard time with the carrots. I know my dd used

to at the beginning. I wouldn't do the fruits at all. Just the veggies and maybe

a little fruit juice just to get the carbs.

It seems like " he " is starting out SCD, maybe not intro., but, if he's drinking

juices too, it could be causing yeast. This was our case so, we just cut back on

them. Not eliminated entirely. I'll let the SCD counselors answer questions from

now on. Sorry. I thought there was a post of you all needing help here. I was

just using our experience. Jenn L

Jenn,

I appreciate your help in answering posts, but have no choice but to step in and

clarify so no one else misunderstands and interprets that they were told on our

list " not to use fruits " .

I hope you understand.... This is a very big list, and you'd be surprised how

easily people jump to conclusions and assume things. In your reply to Kristie,

you said:

<<I wouldn't do the fruits at all. Just the veggies and maybe a little fruit

juice just to get the carbs. >>

So, I appreciate that in your next post, you clarified it by saying:

<<we just cut back on them. Not eliminated entirely. >>

It's just that your first statement really did sound like you were suggesting

eliminating fruits entirely (except for a little juice). I'm relieved to see

that's not what you really meant.

I know it may be true that some need to cut back on fruit and honey until yeast

is under control, and I've stated that before. So, we aren't in disagreement

about this.... I think there just needed to be some clarity for the sake of the

many, many people who read this list but don't actively post. Thanks for

understanding and please don't stop answering questions. I didn't mean to

scold.... only to make things clear.

Also, I'm pretty sure that, although she did mention being worried about it,

Kristie's most pressing issue at the moment is not really yeast.... but in

getting to the bottom of what's causing the black stool; especially to rule out

bleeding.

Since she has already been giving him the fruit juice and he's having a hard

time with stools, he might benefit from not eating as much fruits right now.

That is what I meant.

As for the stool, I am not a doc and I did recommend her see a GI doc as we did.

I am sorry if I caused any upheaval. Jenn L Re: Re: Still watery stool like black tar continues

It seems like " he " is starting out SCD, maybe not intro., but, if he's

drinking juices too, it could be causing yeast. This was our case so, we just

cut back on them. Not eliminated entirely. I'll let the SCD counselors answer

questions from now on. Sorry. I thought there was a post of you all needing help

here. I was just using our experience. Jenn L
