    Oh Jodie I am so sorry you are having to go through all this! I am glad you found us! My Daughter-in-law was DX with UC a month after giving birth.

    Bowel Prep Horror!

    This is what my son was given but mixed his with sprite also. He seemed to get through it much easier than I did with the other yuky stuff I had years ago! I think it was some Phospho soda stuff?

    Split Buttcrack?

    My son suffers from these. They bleed & hurt something awful. The GI Dr. knows about them & he always takes a look to see how the bum is doing. He prescribed 2.5% hydrocortisone ointment for it.

    Our Surgery Journey

    "T".....It is a known fact that when you go through surgery you can feel low & depressed. Especially when it's something so major & life changing.
