Guest guest Posted March 17, 2009 Report Share Posted March 17, 2009 My friend who is 20 y.o. was recently diagnosed with CD after a sudden flare. She was rushed into surgery and part of her colon and small intestine were removed. I want to help her start on SCD but I wonder what kind of results she can expect. Does anyone have experience with SCD after such surgery? Thanks--Peggie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do know that SCD is an incredibly healthy diet becaise I recovered from my cancer surgery far faster and far better than any of my surgeons expected. Getting on SCD will help reduce the issues in the rest of her gut so she doesn't need more surgery, IMO. — Marilyn New Orleans, Louisiana, USA Undiagnosed IBS since 1976, SCD since 2001 Darn Good SCD Cook No Human Children Shadow & Sunny Longhair Dachshund Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 18, 2009 Report Share Posted March 18, 2009 Peggie, My son has had success on the SCD post surgery. However, his surgery (ileum and 10 inches of small intestine removed) was in 1998 and he didn't start on the SCD until much later - 2008. Someone who had great success immediately after surgery is Jill Luck. She writes a regular SCD blog which your friend might like to take a look at - www.scdadventures.blogspot.com It's inspirational! Hope your friend feels well soon. Lesley > > My friend who is 20 y.o. was recently diagnosed with CD after a sudden flare.
