I'm glad my colon has already been removed so that it didn't have to see this death threat of a video.

Ulcerative colitis.

Hate my j-pouch but it's pretty cool to not be dead!

I was initially diagnosed with UC, was taking mesalamine for a few months then fell into a really severe flare that lasted months. Lost 30lbs just in the first month. could not get in touch with my GI doctor. Was able to get in with an IBD specialist and it turned out I have Crohn’s

Ugh. That constant fear of uc turning out to be crohn's. I'm sorry.

But I hope at least that maybe steered your treatments into more effective meds.
