It’s Friday…so it’s time for some more recommendations. These sites are for people with IBD.
http://crohnology.com/ - Not sure if I recommended this one in the past. It is a great place to find people with IBD in your area.
http://www.crohnsdiseasesupport.co.uk/ - This is a UK based site. It has some good information for patients.
http://ucvlog.com/ - This one is for people with Ulcerative Colitis and is put out by 2 great people, Nadia and Dennis.
http://www.girls-with-guts.com/ - This one is a brand new site put out by some great women … Sara, Jackie, and Charise. These ladies are well known in the IBD community. They have just banded together to create a site for women with IBD.
This week, I want to toot my own horn also. Check out my new page on Facebook. http://www.facebook.com/BathroomTalk This is a place to get a laugh and tell some stories with people with IBD.
I hope you enjoy these sites, and if you discover some real good IBD sites, let me know and I will promote them here next Friday. Have a wonderful Pain Free weekend..and remember -Tomorrow, May 19th is World IBD Day.
Don’t forget everyone! <3

So these past couple of days haven’t been that great. As of last week, my tummy has had a weird feeling like it is getting ready to give me pain and be sick..but it doesn’t get worse. I have been going to the bathroom a little bit more than normal also.
I had been doing so well these past couple of months since going gluten free. My CD has not bothered me since early February. I was hoping that I was on my way into remission. Now, I am thinking I am about to get worse again….damn I hate this disease.
All I keep thinking is No Flare….Please. Spring is here and I want to enjoy the weather. I have my Take Steps walk in June and I want to be able to go to this. I have vacation in July that I really am looking forward to. Please Crohn’s do give me a flare now.
On top of all this, I can feel some depression seeping into my mind. I have been so upbeat and positive these past couple of months and I don’t want all my hard work to get better to just fade away.
I always feel a lot of love from my fellow Crohnies online and I could use some of that love and positivity more than ever now. I just have to remember that I love life and I won’t let this crappy disease (pun intended) get to me. And please…No Flare.
So on Twitter they have every Friday a thing called Follow Friday where people tweet their friends and interests to get other people to follow them. I would love to do this on other sites to help promote site that are out there. Below are a bunch of sites for IBD’ers. They are in no particular order..but they are all fantastic. I urge anyone with IBD to check them out and meet some new and interesting people. Remember, you are not alone out there.

If you have someone you want me to promote out there, let me know. I would love to do this every Friday.
To all my Crohn-ies out there: this bottle is a life savor for those times when you just can’t get your tummy moving everything out, or when you are bloated… They are fab. Just make sure you don’t get the peppermint flavor. Those ones are gross.
WadeszWorld: I definitely want to try this and see if it helps me because I experience occasional bloating every now and then living with Crohn’s.
I’m starting to see this a lot from other Crohnies. Is that a sign?? Thinking I might have to give it a try.
