Mycoplasma bacteria and IBD

In deciding what I should write about today I reread Dr. Eisner's January 24th post. In it he answers a readers question about the possible cause for IBD. The first time I read his post I was traveling and gave it a quick gloss, but today one word stuck out to me like a neon sign - mycobacterium. It has been nearly one year to the day that I... Read moreChevron

When You're Feeling Desperate. . .

I'm not sure if it's the holiday blues, winter blues, or what but I've been hearing some sad IBD stories from readers as well as some IBD stories of desperation. I know first-hand just how desperate you can feel when diarrhea, pain, cramps, bloating, and fatigue take over your life. It was ten years ago that my symptoms peaked - I was... Read moreChevron

Living and Thriving with IBD

Over time I learned how to live with my IBD rather than allowing myself to become IBD. For the first year, maybe two, I lived as my disease. I let my colitis define me. I was no longer Elizabeth with a vibrant love of life and travel and writing and exploration, I was simply Elizabeth who had colitis. I pooped, I thought about poop, I feared poop.... Read moreChevron

Diagnosing Irritable Bowl Syndrome

As I sat across from my gastroenterologist in his private office in July 1998 I felt scared, anxious, and exhausted. Two weeks before I'd had my first colonoscopy after spending months with chronic diarrhea, abdominal cramps, bouts of blood and mucus, and serious weight loss. My doctor was speaking but I didn't really hear him. All I... Read moreChevron

My Bog Blog Intro

Welcome to my Bog Blog. "Bog," by the way, is British slang for toilet and it seems so appropriate for an IBD blog.   If you had told me when I was twenty years-old that some day not too far in the future I would be scoping out the nearest toilet wherever I went I would have said you were nuts. But, indeed, this odd habit became part of my... Read moreChevron
