Heylo! IBD is something you’ll learn new things even after you’ve been diagnosed for years. I have been diagnosed since 4/11/17.

Hi! I was diagnosed in 2008 and I still learn more about Crohn's all the time. It was pretty rough for me when I was first diagnosed but as time goes on, you get used to how to handle it.

I'm new to the app too! I was diagnosed with Crohn's when I was 5 years old. I'm 23 now, so I've had it most of my life

It’s been a bumpy road since diagnosis but overall it’s been up from there! I was diagnosed in high school about 8 years ago and have since achieved remission. I hope the same for you!

I was diagnosed with UC first then the diagnosis changed to Crohn’s. I got sick in college and had to have a colectomy off the bat. Has anyone else had surgery?

I had a small intestine resection about 4 years ago

Hi there! I was diagnosed in 2007 and mine is in the same spot as yours. We have a lot of commonalities and I'd love to connect more with you.
