    I'm a furniture installer, and feel so awkward arriving at a customer home in the morning when i'm most active. "Hi, i'm here to install your kitchen, but first i'm going to have to destroy your toilet. Please point me in the right direction." Once a client was sat with me for the morning, I can only imagine what they were thinking when I used their toilet 5 times in 2 hours.

    Going to school was a problem... during the lesson my stomach made such terrible noises that sometimes professors had to interrupt the lesson... And obviously everyone was staring at me wondering about how was it possible to make such noises. And I couldn t do anything to stop this awkward moments!

    Hey I have Crohn’s too and I’ve had it for about 6 years since I was 8. Thanks for talking about it!!! I haven’t found anyone who understands what it feels like and has a somewhat normal lifestyle. You are so funny and I would really like it if u kept making videos!!!

    "I shit all the time Paula"!!!! funniest thing I've heard today! I've had Crohn's now for 22 years (diagnosed at 14).. NEVER TRUST A FART!!!

    I love your sense of humor about your Crohn's. I've learned that keeping a sense of humor is the best way to handle the awkwardness of the disease. Of course, there are times when I'm flaring and frustrated and can't keep a sense of humor and that's when I watch your videos. You help me through it.

    Squatty Potty makes Unicorn Gold toilet spray in several fragrances, and it's really good. Wish I had it on me last summer when I was filling out paperwork at a health insurance place, wearing white shorts... when that tiny, little, wind, turned out to be a huge accident that went through those shorts. Needless to say, my mom turned in the paperwork for me while I hid in the car after cleaning up. Then, instead of grocery shopping, like I had planned, it was back home for a shower,a change of clothes, pain meds, and a nap.

    I've had countless accidents since last summer thanks to the worst flare I've ever had so far. It's been going on since January 2018 & it's still not quite settled... But I am doing much better now. Tescos sells incontinence pants (next to the ladies sanitary section) all the way up to extra large though your local public health nurse should also be able to help you with a supply of them too. I had an emergency poo purse in my handbag with 2 spare incontinence pants, clean knickers, nappy bags & flushable wet wipes that I brought everywhere. I also used to carry air freshener whenever I thought of it 😂😂😂. Luckily I am doing much better & I don't have to carry around the poo purse anymore but just in case I still take some immodium in the morning if I'm going to be out of the house as I still have 4-7 loo trips. To people with regular guts that may still sound like a lot of poops but compared to the 15-25 that I was having 6-8 months ago, it's a massive improvement.

    Just found your channel. Love your attitude and tips. I've had Crohn's for about 19 years. The struggle is real. I've had it moderate but still a battle with diet, meds and fatigue. Thanks for the vids. Keep it up!

    Hey... So glad uve posted a video.. I have crohns so bad.. Been on everything.. Was diagnosed in 2016.. Misdiagnosed in 2014.. So in that 2 years my small bowel is completely diseased even specialist surgeon can't do anything.. Last thing I was on was humira!!! Bad worst mistake ever... Long story.. Anyway I'm on fortisips.. And penicillin to help with the inflammation. My large bowel is now being effected.. So the loo from going loads!! Is now working the opposite!! I'm on no treatment.. Just antibiotics and the fortisips. I've got strictures etc!!!

      @marcus3060 Před 5 lety

      Hey hope you can keep your head up I know it seems there's no end. fortisips help me gain strength but antibiotics make me worse. I'm on infliximab just no helps for a week. As I think my fistulas eating the medicine. So I feel you 2 month a go I was in hospital being told theres nothing else they can do. When I realised I need to get home and look after my mind and body.

    Hi
    I am so unhappy, I got diagnosed on 27/7/20. To get info n support has been hard. I have drop on my magnesium n calcium. Had drips started feeling great but when they stop I get my asthma flares up cant walk without needing my pumps as I get lightheaded.
    I signed up to crohn's n colitis uk. Got my key for disabled toilets.
    I have read things there but I have questions.
    My GP did not issue medication that my consultant requested them to do....on 17/8/20...and ended up in hospital. First time saw medical professionals 15 days then was sent home a week later back again 5 days, same day i was released i ended up in A&E as my face swollen...so scared.
    They let me go home next day, my face still swollen.
    I'm on my own, can't sleep, exhausted beyond believe.

    Being diagnosed on 27/7/20. And suffering since 2008, finally I have an answer...your video has been great. Thank you.
    I'm now worried my first apt over the phone due to covid 19. I'm worried about the whole process...I'm 0ver 50 n worried about steroids. I'm a diabetic diet control.

Trying to survive as much as I can 😅 I think everyone with IBD has some lifehacks how to deal with wind, diarrhea etc🤪 The best way how to deal wiith it, is to "don't give a 💩 about it much"😅

    Well done you . I've had crohns colitis 3 years now myself i am currently on my 2nd biological drug i have had every medicine you could possible imagine.
    Everyone of them has currently stopped working or given me really bad side effects.
    Currently the one I'm on at the minute has given me high blood pressure and normally mine is low so they want me to come of it to go on self injections instead.
    Im really not up for that im sick of all the medicine .
    Please could you give me any tips on the way you stopped taking medication and what diet you follow because I'm sick of being a walking pin cushion.
    Thank you love your videos they really help me a lot.
