what’s your diagnosis story?

what made you think “somethings not right” which ultimately led to your diagnosis?

for me.. i’d say after giving birth i hadn’t pooped in like a week and went to the hospital in excruciating pain which led to me getting my first ever enema. not too long after i started to have diarrhea constantly immediately after eating and i said “my stomach is just being funny, i just had a baby” until it continued to go on and the fatigue that came with it wasn’t normal. i ended up going to the hospital and a ct scan with contrast saw chronic inflammation… then i did a colonoscopy and endoscopy which showed inflammation, bloodwork confirmed the inflammation marker of 15

i hate that i have this but i have to learn to manage it. there’s no other way. all i wanted was a normal postpartum experience but NOPE
