Hi everyone,
I'm 31 and was just recently released from the hospital. While there I was diagnosised with Crohn's which caused a small bowel obstruction. I've been out of the hospital for about 2 weeks now. Currently on a Prednisone taper and another immunosuppressent. I've been to my GI doc since my release and since I am still having pain and nausea, he believes that surgery may be my best option. (eek!)
I have to say that this whole process has been incredibly overwhelming. I've read a million things and still unsure what is correct and what to bypass. I'm trying to figure what a good diet is to try and minimize symptoms and pain med usage. I keep coming back to the Specific Carbohydrate Diet. Has anyone tried this? What has been your outcome?
Today has been the worst day since my hospital release with pain and nausea.
Thanks,
Missy
