Guest guest Posted August 16, 2010 Report Share Posted August 16, 2010 I am new to this site and have several questions- My 14 year old son was diagnosed with UC last year. He tried several mesalamines which did not help him so he received remicade last week. He is also on 50 mgs of Prednisone which we are starting to wean him from. I am starting SCD this week for him. He had lost 15 lbs prior to the remicade because of a flare. The remicade worked for him almost immediately. His appetite is strong and he is putting weight back on. I want him to start the SCD so that we can help nutritionally heal his gut. When I start him on SCD at this point, can I give him whatever SCD legal foods he wants or do I need to do the phasing? Does he need to start with the intro diet? Can I modify the intro diet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
