Hi ,

Before you start any testing or treatment please make sure your

amalgam fillings, if you have them, have been removed. Also read

through the information provided in the links section and get Andy

Cutlers book.

Don't be in too much of a hurry to get started, this is a long

process and rushing things without knowing the information needed can

lead to mistakes and making yourself much worse.

Do a lot of reading first and ask questions when something is

unclear.

Don't do tesing with DMPS. Read the files section of this group in detail,

before you risk harming yourself even more.

Thanks everyone.

Please dont panic lol, I have Jane helping me, she seems to know her

stuff; and I am not using DMPS, (I did put in a question mark there

cos I have a short-term memory problem and word finding difficulties

and I guess I probably had the wrong term for it.)

Am seeing a dentist on 11th October to have a long chat, if no

success I will come back for that address of the good dentist you

guys mentioned.

Thanks for your warm welcome and all your helpful comments

Hi again,

I just posted a question about yogurt making, and thought I should

introduce myself, since I may be on this site a lot. I have had IBS

undiagnosed since 1984, finally disagnosed in 1994, but had no real

improvement except accidentally while I was on the Atkins diet. It has

gotten worse with time, and I decided I wanted to try again to get some

relief. I've been on the SCD diet (not perfectly, but 95%) for 2

months. Was feeling better and started excercizing again, though I am

horribly thin, I've lost 15 pounds and really was at a perfect weight

to start. Then last week I started having stomach pain, and fatigue

again, and D. The two month flare?

Does anyone have words of encouragement? When might I feel better, and

especially be able to put weight back on?

Thanks for listening.

Hey Carol..

Welcome to the BTVC-SCD abode! Chill, sit back and we'll fix you some

SCD snacks!!

I must say right off the bat SCD requires %100 fanaticism! So %95 may

not be good enough to get to the proper level of healing.. I am sure

the old timers here can do a better job explaining this!!

I have been SCD for 6 months (more than 6 months but I did not do the

beginning Intro diet properly so I don't even count those months!) I

have been diagnosed with Crohn's/Colitis for over 10 years but sick

for 17. I have tried so many things over the years with many

hospitalizations in between. SCD has been a blessing for me. I have

had quite a roller coaster ride on this diet due to many mistakes,

ignorance and die-off- even with all that it's the first thing to EVER

give me any kind of results. So I stay strong through those super

rough bouts!

I'm sure others can jump in and also express how SCD has helped.

This resource of this online community has been invaluable to me and

really helps me stay on course and learn what to do to help myself. I

can only hope with time I will improve more and more until one day I

feel this terrible disease is totally behind me. Maybe I will also be

able to experience what Ginger just recently shared as her colonoscopy

results were great and her villi grew back to the shock of her GI!!

So, once again welcome.. And ask questions no matter how stupid you

think they are!! That's what I do and it has truly helped! Bless the

group that puts up with many of my rants and inquiries!
