Hi im new to this, my friend recommended it, i was diagnosed with IBD about 3 years ago, i left it nearly a year before i went to get help, i was convinced i had bowel cancer and was soo scared, i would always tell people to get it checked first time because i was a mess when i eventually went to the docs, i had lost 24 lbs, was anemic, stressed, tired and moody etc.
I had lost alot of blood and nearly had to get a blood transfusion but i just about had the limit. Anyway, its been up and down since then, only recently has the doc told me it is ulcerative colitis and not crohns, although i am in the "mild symptoms" category, i dont think im 100% happy because i get symptoms all the time. So i have a couple questions id like to ask the experts, because thats what you are, you people have what i have so ...
i always seem to be on the pan the day after a night out, should i stop drinking at the weekend?
whats the best alcohol to drink if i was on a night out?
what alcohol should i stay away from?
does smoking make it worse?
what suppliments should i use to help me?
does certain foods make it worse?
how come when im work and im working in a place myself i always feel i need the toilet, but when others are there im fine?
how come when i get slightly nervous i need the toilet?
is there anything i can take to stop the spasms and constipation?
Thanks in advance
