:ylol2:I am so happy with myself for joining this forum, now i can talk 2 people from all over the world who understand everything im going through. Having crohns can be scary cause u dont know when your next flair up is gonna be but also annoying because you have to base your life round a toilet! I must spend more on loo roll a month then what i do on my rent:lol2: The 1 thing i have come 2 understand is that our bodys do not go by a book, i have had some arguments with my consultant over the years over this & he has come to understand that i am not the same as his previous patient, we all suffer in different ways, yes they have studied about ibd but its us that have 2 live with it day in day out!! You know your body best.. To everybody out there that has ibd keep your head up, i know its hard but hopefully 1 day soon they will come with a cure:hug:

Hi Rebecca, and welcome!
I like the positive attitude! I struggle to have one of those a lot of the time
Sounds like you're standing up for youself which is good to hear, I'm very lucky as my GI has the exact same feelings towards the disease as you do! What's your current status in terms of health and treatment ect? Hope you're doing okay
