Improving urgency and control

[Guest guest]

*posted this on SCD-UK, hope it is OK to double post!*

Hi all,

Not posted here for a while. Been on the diet for over 2 years now. Had some

success but pushed things too far a while back and went 'scd-plus' and paid the

price for about 6 months.

Back to seeing some success again now with the stools generally being

well-formed. My question is for those who had success really - what happens with

urgency and control of BMs? Is it something that just improves over time or is

it something that you have to work out; eg, strengthening the muscles and trying

to hold on for longer.

As I say, I am enjoying some success with frequency and consistency but still at

the beck and call of my bowels!

Grateful for any advice.

Thanks,

Mike

i just screwed up recently and was at the beck and call of my bowels for 5 weeks

then it improved - hang in and go intro stage 1 maybe 2 easy foods for you -

and soup!!and i used powdered calcium citrate 3 times a day. it helped
