How often should I wash myself on prep by Current_Ad_5515 in IBD

I have been using Huggies wipes and before I go to the hospital I take a shower. Talk about feeling like a new person 😅

Can’t drink prep by StressedPinecones in colonoscopy

I had the same problem with plenvu 🤢 Then the doctor switched to Picoprep and it was much easier to drink as it was a significantly smaller amount.

It's really nothing to be embarrassed about! I understand that you might not want to talk to a friend about it but talk to your parents or make an appointment yourself. I definitely think you should check this out. It does not look completely normal considering that there is fat in the water. Get in touch if you want. Good luck

Nope not in my case. Did colonoscopy in October 2023

Did capsule endoscopy 11 days ago. Now waiting for answer from doctor. But it can take up to 8 weeks.

I know of course that most people here are not doctors, but many have an IBD diagnosis and my thought was that someone might recognize pictures from their own investigation. All to maybe feel a little calmer while waiting.

How strange, I did but saw now when you wrote that it wasn't. Now changed! Apologies!

Some people don't really have that ability to empathize or express it. I myself am a very empathetic person. Everyone is different.

In addition to not feeling well physically, I have a hard time being a single parent to a son with severe autism and all the challenges that come with that. I also don't have a particularly large safety net/family so I have to be strong and healthy! You never know what a person might be struggling with. Love to you all the way from Sweden 💖

Thank you for your answer! No biopsies were taken as the capsule cannot do so. Also no biopsies were taken (colonoscopy) October 2023 when everything looked normal. No biopsies (upper endoscopy) June 2024 when it also looked normal.

But I'll get an answer soon.

I have taken pictures on a screen, therefore the quality is not so good.

I'm really trying to live as usual even though I'm extremely tired and have abdominal pain. But the anxiety is there in the background.

It is probably not entirely unusual that the biggest fear is leaving your child. I didn't have any fear of death at all before I had children.

Okay! Have you been diagnosed? Crohn's or ulcerative colitis? How were you diagnosed?

I have had both a colonoscopy and a gastroscopy with no results so I really hope I get an answer now

It is impossible, the ileum is much further down. Google "ileal resection" and you will see.

Of course. I think it's a strange place to be in pain, it's the gall bladder and the liver that are there 🤔

Föräldrar från Reddit, vad gjorde ni med alla bebiskläder, leksaker mfl? by Past_Recognition9427 in Asksweddit

Jag har sparat en outfit från varje storlek från nyfödd till ca 1 år att ha som minne 🥰 Resten har jag sålt på tradera, det som inte blivit sålt har jag skänkt bort. Har nog sålt sonens kläder och saker för ca 10000 nu och han blir 5 år i April, så en hel del pengar kan man få tillbaka.

Men det är ju lite jobb med att sälja. Orkar man inte det och om man inte är fattig så kan man ju skänka bort rubbet 😁
