hi all- i know topics like this have been posted a million times, but i'm in bad shape right now and honestly don't really want to make the effort to read through pages and pages...

any foods that you find easy to eat and digest?  the last week has been horrible...insane pain when i am going to the bathroom- so bad i'm puking again... even when i'm not going to the bathroom the pain is a constant 4 or so on a scale of 1-10...

also more bleeding again...yeah.

i am going to try to stick to liquids, ensure etc. but i have so much trouble with that...i've been trying wonton soup, bland chicken and white rice...

any other suggestions would be awesome!

thanks so much!

I try to stick to what I call my "white food" diet. Basically custard, eggs, pasta, mashed potato, fish, pudding, broth, cheese....

Hope that helps some and you are feeling better soon.

I eat alot of chicken, fish and turkey. Stay away from raw veggies, red meat (harder to digest), milk products. I like mashed potatoes, rice as things to go along with the chicken, fish and turkey. If its really bad I try to go onto a full liquid diet for a few days. Hugs!

gerber baby rice cereal...use a soy or coconut or rice milk...this usually calms, and doesn't hurt either...it works for nausea too...but makes you feel like you are eating something...I hope something works...and you can give me a call if you need someone to talk to or whatever...or email me too...k?

My husband avoids salads (raw veggies), eats red meat very rarely in general. When flaring, he avoids milk products, and whole grain/wheat products. When he's flaring he just eats plain rice and baked chicken or seafood, turkey patties. If gas isn't an issue, he has white bread, plain bagel, plain noodles/pasta and ensure. If gas is an issue, he has boost glucose control instead. Also, I make the SCD chicken soup which seems to sit well with him.

thanks all! appreciate it. i think i'm going to try the liquids for a while...i think there may be a stricture or something they can't (haven't) seen do far...it's after i eat and have to go to the bathroom that the REAL pain starts...maybe liquid will be easier.

I've been living on grilled cheese sandwiches and tomato soup. And toast and mashed potatoes. It doesn't seem to help with the pain and D, but it's about all I can handle eating without throwing up.

I lived on noodles and mashed potatoes for over 2 years.
