Guest guest Posted September 27, 2010 Report Share Posted September 27, 2010 Hi Steve, I'm so sorry to hear you have yet to notice any improvement. I agree with Mara, it's time to test for various other possibilities. I have a question for you about your symptoms: I gather the nausea is fairly constant, I mean you have it no matter what you eat? I know you said symptoms change a lot but are there any foods at all that seem to cause fewer troubles or OK, still nauseated but not as much, that kind of thing? Would you tell us a little more about your SCD experience, to see if anyone can spot something? In other words, did you do Intro at one time or another? If so, and you weren't feeling better, did you try it again? A different Intro (food-wise?) One thing I would suggest, since your problems are complicated, would be to consider adding LDN to your other med. IT's a good complement to the diet and can help a lot of things. Slowly, but it helps many many people. One other thing to consider: your appendix? I mention this because I had (and didn't know it) chronic appendicitis for several years and several acute attacks and as I wasn't smart enough to head for the ER, everyone, me, doctors and all, just thought all this was the same old gut stuff I normally had only somewhat worse. I think they all thought I had flu on top of IBS. By the time I had the last acute attack the appendix was letting go and very close to being dangerous. And yet it took all that time to get anything like normal symptoms and pains in the right place. Hi all, I have been on SCD since December 2009 but have not had any change in my condition, either negative or positive. My symptoms are admittedly different from anyone else I have encountered on these boards and consist of constant nausea and/or stomach pain/ache/discomfort as well as some discomfort in my colon. I open my bowels 2-3 times per day and whilst my stools are generally formed things are not quite right in this area as I don't produce long golden banana shapes that we all strive for. My symptoms are constantly changing in severity and change seemingly for no reason. The worst symptom by far is the nausea. I never feel normal or well, not even for 5 minutes and I have felt like this for over 2 years now. I think I have been strict on the diet but I thought I would list my complete food list and ask you guys if you can see where I am going worng. The foods I consume are as follows:- grilled plain salmon, grilled plain chicken and turkey, home made '24hr' yoghurt, mild cheddar cheese, broccoli, carrots, cauliflower, greens, sprouts, leeks, cabbage, beets, cashew nuts, almonds, brazil nuts, walnuts, apples, bananas and nectarines. I only drink bottled water. I don't eat anything else. The only medication I take is Mirtazapine which I believe is legal. I don't take any supplements. I would welcome any thoughts please.
