Hi -
We are thinking of trying the SCD  (Specific Carbohydrate Diet) for  
our celiac dx daughter whose acid reflux, nausea and headaches have  
not resolved on a gluten-free diet and who seems to feel sick after  
eating almost anything.  We have been to many different doctors who  
cannot find any cause for her symptoms.

I have "Breaking the Vicious Cycle" and a couple of SCD recipe  
books.  Would like to know your experiences and any hints you can  
share to make the experience successful and easier.

Am particularly interested in your experience concerning how to  
handle SCD approved foods that made you sick before trying the SCD  
diet (other than the gluten foods).  Did you still avoid them on the  
SCD diet or were you able to eat them immediately or after a while?   
Our child gets sick eating all goat and cow milk products (including  
yoghurt and cheese), eggs, tomatoes (acid reflux), peppers.  She does  
not have an IgE allergy to any of these foods, but tested high on the  
IgG test for egg whites and casein.  All the MDs we have seen say  
that the IgG tests are unreliable, but we believe that she feels sick  
whenever she eats milk (gets migraines) or egg whites (abdominal  
cramping).

Also, did you take enzymes and probiotics while on the SCD (if you  
were taking them before) or did you discontinue them?

Thanks for any ideas, advice, or stories about your experiences.

Jackie in AZ
