Something I Hate About These Appointments... (A Visit to My GI Doctor for Crohn's) | Let's Talk IBD

I just had my follow up with my gastroenterologist to see how my Crohn's disease was doing! I share about our discussion, including results of previous endoscoscopies, ileoscopies, and MRI's. We talked about the potential of being tested for SIBO (Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth) and future scopes. Going into this appointment, I realized with my unique anatomy (don't miss you one bit colon), the pre-questionnaire really doesn't apply to me much. I wish it was a little bit more specific to each person' care. That would help me to prepare for these appointments better!

All I know is we were both thrilled about my weight gain and I am always happy that colonoscopies aren't part of my routine care anymore. :)

Hi, I'm Maggie and I have Crohn's disease. I am thrilled to be here sharing my personal experiences with Inflammatory Bowel Disease as well as living with an ostomy.
