I wish the best of luck to you. Please let us know if you're successful. So far I've heard of plenty of success stories about treating C. diff, but no success stories from anyone who has actually been able to resolve MC or any other IBD by means of fecal transplant treatments.

It is suspected that some of the hardest material known to science can be found in the skulls of GI specialists who insist that diet has nothing to do with the treatment of microscopic colitis.

thanks for the luck. My hubby thinks it would be beneficial to try the SCD diet first. I wasn't born with this disease and feel there is no reason I shouldn't be able to cure it. Some how, some way. I just went through a 30 day detox similar to whole 30 but stricter (no caffeine). I had horrid diarrhea to the point I got hemorrhoids. Granted I lost 11 pounds but gained it all back within 6 wks. Now I'm feeling very low and very desperate.

The SCD can be used if you avoid all dairy products. The SCD allows yogurt and hard cheese, as I recall, and that 's loaded with casein (which most of us can't tolerate). Otherwise the SCD may work just fine.

HealthyDesire...I am wondering if you ever went through with your diy FMT, and if so, what results you've had.
