Podcasts about Ulcerative colitis

About 1-in-6 Americans suffer from an Autoimmune Disease, which is actually a growing problem.  In this episode, we talk about:—How Dr. Prather's career was inspired by his own battle with Graves' Disease, which is an Autoimmune Disease.  And why making sure the Atlas is in proper place is "critical" for Autoimmune Disease and needs to be corrected first before there can be any progress.—The various categories of Autoimmune Disease:  Joints and Muscles (Rheumatoid Arthritis, Lupus, Myositis), Skin and Blood Vessels (Sjogren's Syndrome, Psoriatic Arthritis, Vitiligo), Digestive (Celiac Disease, Crohn's Disease, Ulcerative Colitis), the Endocrine System (Type I Diabetes, Addison's Disease, Hashimoto's, Thyroiditis, Graves' Disease), the Nervous System (Multiple Sclerosis, Myasthenia Gravis, Guillain-Barre), the Lymphatic System (Fibromyalgia), and many more.—The different infections that can kick off Autoimmune Disease, including Viruses, Bacteria, Parasitic, or Fungal.   And how Heavy Metal Toxicities and Stress can cause of Autoimmune Disease.—Why the underlying cause of the Autoimmune Disease is more important to determine in Dr. Prather's Structure-Function Health Care model, while the Disease Care approach focuses on managing and suppressing the symptoms.  And the "huge" role that the Gut plays in Autoimmune Diseases.—The new cutting-edge area of drugs called Biologics and how they work.  And how Vaccines are actually classified as Biologics.—How Immunosuppressant Drugs can be helpful and life-saving, but can also increase your chances of Cancer and a shortened life-span.  And why Dr. Prather says, "The more drugs that you take, the longer you take them, the more likely you are to have an issue."—Why your ability to fight infections, viruses, fungal, and parasites "go way down" if you are taking an Immunosuppressant Drug.—How Dr. Prather himself and many of his patients are a "testament" that Medical Doctors are wrong when taught to believe that there is no hope of getting well from Autoimmune Disease.  And how the Structure-Function Care results he sees in his office disprove the Medical model's belief that symptoms should just be managed and that the patient will always get worse.—Why Dr. Prather says "we're not going to get anywhere" with an Autoimmune Disease if you have Heavy Metal toxicity.  And the importance of thorough diagnostics in Structure-Function Care to determine the root cause of the Autoimmune Disease that needs to be corrected.—The effectiveness of Structure-Function Care, which is "the only way you're going to make headway in an Autoimmune Disease".  And the reason Homeopathics are described by Dr. Prather as "a real key" for making dramatic changes in Autoimmune Disease.http://www.TheVoiceOfHealthRadio.com

Send us a textImagine visiting your gastroenterologist and feeling comfortable enough to discuss every aspect of how IBD affects your life—including your sexual health and practices. For many patients, particularly those in the LGBTQI+ community, this remains an elusive dream rather than reality.Dr. Victor Chedid, gastroenterologist and director of Mayo Clinic's Pride Clinic, joins Bowel Moments to tackle this crucial gap in IBD care. With disarming honesty and clinical expertise, he reveals why addressing sexuality isn't just about inclusivity—it's about providing complete medical care. When 95% of providers believe discussing sexual health is important but only 27% actually do it, patients suffer in silence with questions that directly impact their quality of life.The conversation dives deep into practical approaches for both patients and providers. Dr. Chedid shares his framework for discussing sexual practices with patients, from the straightforward question "What do you do for sex?" to navigating complex conversations around surgical interventions like J-pouch formation. For transgender patients, he unpacks recent research on gender-affirming hormones and IBD, emphasizing that life-saving gender-affirming care should never be withheld due to IBD concerns.Perhaps most compelling is Dr. Chedid's perspective on cultural humility and intersectionality. Each patient's experience is shaped by multiple overlapping identities—their sexuality, gender, race, nationality, and more. Rather than making assumptions, he advocates for providers to "leave their biases at the door" and approach each person's unique situation with curiosity and respect."People living with IBD are the experts of their own bodies," Dr. Chedid reminds us in his powerful closing thoughts. "When they say something feels off, it's not a guess—it's lived experience." This principle forms the foundation of truly inclusive care—care that sees patients as whole people deserving of dignity, understanding, and comprehensive treatment.Ready to advocate for more inclusive IBD care?

I was diagnosed with an extremely severe case of sleep apnea, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and a pre-diabetic status. At this time, I was also struggling with substance abuse, which would obviously contribute to my health complications, but most were from birth. After receiving the news from running tests, the doctors had informed me that I was lucky to be alive. My psychological health was greatly impacted by my physiological health, evoking feelings of anger, and negativity which caused me to constantly argue with people around me. This affected several of my relationships and was creating a miserable life. This lead me to seek out the help of a bodybuilding coach (not knowing a damn thing about health at the time). The main focus was “getting shredded,” not understanding how much internal health affects one's physique. Interestingly enough, shedding the weight had really helped with my sleep apnea, but still, quite a few health complications were present. At this time hunger was ignited in me to learn more. I became determined to solve what was going on in my body. I decided to acquire my first nutrition certification through the ISSA (International Sports Science Association).

Welcome to Hot Topics! In this episode, we're joined by John McDaniel, who shares his experience with ulcerative colitis, a chronic inflammatory bowel disease that causes inflammation and ulcers in the digestive tract. This condition leads to symptoms like abdominal pain, diarrhea, fatigue, and weight loss.John talks about his journey living with ulcerative colitis, which he was diagnosed with at age 13. He recalls how his symptoms, including bloody stools, started suddenly and how he was afraid to tell his parents. The diagnosis required an endoscopy and a colonoscopy, as the condition doesn't show on regular imaging tests like X-rays.He also discusses the emotional challenges of living with a chronic illness, including feelings of embarrassment and being misunderstood. John explains how stress plays a role in his condition, leading to what he calls "stress poop," where anxiety can trigger flare-ups. After surgery to remove his colon, he had a temporary stoma, which helped him eliminate waste while he healed. He now has a j-pouch, allowing him to eliminate waste normally. To monitor his condition, John has to get a colonoscopy every year, which is more than the average man, highlighting the ongoing nature of his care. He stresses the importance of awareness since there is currently no known cure for inflammatory bowel disease. Now in remission and not taking any medications, John manages his condition with a careful diet and regular check-ups. He encourages others facing similar issues to seek support. Join us for this important conversation that highlights the strength needed to live with ulcerative colitis and offers helpful insights for those dealing with similar challenges.Who is John McDaniel?John is a stay at home dad who is a nerd about several things including music, books, history, and sports. He also hosts a podcast about the EFL and NFL called "The PitchGrid Podcast."You can find John:On Facebook (Profile): https://www.facebook.com/the.pitchgrid.podcastOn Facebook (Page): https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61566358666939On Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thepitchgrid/On X # 1: https://x.com/pitchgridpodOn X # 2: https://x.com/JRAwkyOn YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@PitchGridPodOn TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thepitchgridpodOn Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/thepitchgridpod.bsky.socialJohn has a podcast called "The PitchGrid Podcast."

Send us a textFor two decades, Rachel Gebhardt has navigated the complex terrain of Crohn's disease with a refreshing perspective shaped by her father's experience with the same condition. Where her father let illness define him, Rachel chose a different path—one filled with humor, openness, and resilience—despite her case being more medically severe.Rachel's journey encompasses four bowel surgeries and fourteen hospital admissions since 2020 alone, including a colostomy she affectionately named "Whoopie." With disarming candor, she shares the moment her surgeon showed her a photo of a woman in an American flag bikini with a matching ostomy bag cover as encouragement—a moment that eventually inspired her own celebratory beachside photo years later. Through skin infections, bowel obstructions, and dietary restrictions, Rachel maintains her commitment to living fully and modeling positive coping for her children.The military healthcare system presented unique challenges, but also connected Rachel with Dr. Anish Patel at Brook Army Medical Center, who became not just her gastroenterologist but her advocate and ally. Their relationship exemplifies the profound difference compassionate, specialized care makes for patients with complex conditions. Rachel details her experience with hyperbaric treatments, medication complications, and the surprising remission she experienced only during pregnancy and breastfeeding—highlighting the understudied connection between hormones and IBD.What resonates most deeply is Rachel's transformation from initially viewing her ostomy as "the end of the world" to embracing it as a source of freedom. Now training for a half marathon and hiking mountains previously inaccessible when bathroom urgency controlled her life, she's become an outspoken advocate for ostomy awareness. Her message is clear and powerful: life with an ostomy can be not just manageable, but genuinely good—a perspective desperately needed by those facing similar paths. For anyone navigating IBD or supporting someone who is, Rachel's story offers both practical wisdom and heartening hope.Links: United Ostomy AssociationOur episode with Dr. Anish PatelPregnancy and Crohn's - video from Brigham & Women's IBD CenterPregnancy & Breastfeeding info- Crohn's Colitis UKLet's get social!!Follow us on Instagram!Follow us on Facebook!Follow us on Twitter!

After years of flare-ups, procedures, and fear of the “incurable” label, he began questioning the conventional narrative that autoimmune disease means the body is attacking itself.That search led him to uncover the emotional patterns behind IBD—and eight years later, he's still symptom-free.Together, we unpack:

Send us a textWhat happens when your body declares war on multiple organs? Julie Davis knows this reality all too well. Her medical journey began with a celiac disease diagnosis at 18, followed by ulcerative colitis in college, but it was the sudden onset of autoimmune pancreatitis in 2011 that turned her world upside down.Julie's story is remarkable not just for the rare combination of conditions she manages, but for the extraordinary resilience she's shown throughout her journey. As a dietitian who became a physician's assistant while battling debilitating pancreatitis flares, Julie brings unique perspective from both sides of healthcare. She takes us through the harrowing experience of multiple hospitalizations, specialists puzzling over her case at Mayo Clinic, and ultimately, the life-altering decision to have her pancreas completely removed in 2023.The procedure—called total pancreatectomy with islet cell autotransplantation—is so rare that Julie couldn't find a single podcast about it. Her pancreatic cells were extracted and transplanted into her liver, turning her into what she describes as "essentially a type 1 diabetic" overnight. Despite this dramatic medical intervention and the insulin pump she now relies on, Julie's perspective remains incredibly positive.Perhaps most inspiring is how Julie has refused to let her health conditions define her limitations. She completed PA school despite having an endoscopy and nerve block the same morning as important exams. She had three children through IVF while managing multiple autoimmune conditions. And today, she's passing on her hard-won wisdom to her daughter, who has inherited celiac disease.Julie's message to fellow chronic illness warriors rings clear: "It doesn't define you. You can still do things that you love." Her extraordinary journey demonstrates that even the most complex medical challenges can't stand in the way of a determined spirit pursuing a fulfilling career, family life, and future.Links: The Juicebox PodcastMission Cure: Nonprofit working in improve quality of life and bring more treatments to chronic pancreatitis Let's get social!!Follow us on Instagram!Follow us on Facebook!Follow us on Twitter!

Send us a text** Warning that this episode talks very candidly and descriptively about surgery and more.** Few IBD stories contain as many twists, complications, and near-death experiences as Bryan Schulze's journey with ulcerative colitis. What began with occasional bleeding during his military deployment escalated into a life-threatening medical emergency when doctors discovered he had been hemorrhaging internally for months. With severe anemia and barely conscious, Bryan's introduction to IBD came with a stark realization — he had been slowly dying without knowing it.Bryan's candid account takes us through the harrowing reality of military service with undiagnosed IBD, the struggle to maintain dignity while bleeding profusely, and the complex surgeries that followed. After medication failures and complications that defy belief, Bryan underwent a full colectomy and J-pouch surgery that led to severe complications including a massive abdominal infection, wound vacuum treatments, and catastrophic surgical errors. Beyond the physical trauma, Bryan shares the emotional and professional toll of IBD. From workplace discrimination to failed career dreams, steroid-induced diabetes to heart failure, and battles with depression and anxiety — his story encompasses the full spectrum of challenges IBD patients may face. Yet through it all, Bryan found his way back through support from his family, reconnection with his faith, and an indomitable will to live.Now serving as a police officer with a permanent ostomy bag, Bryan offers powerful wisdom to fellow IBD warriors: "Take a deep breath. It's not a life ender. It is a life changer. Be willing to adapt with it so that you can overcome it and still live the life that you were given to live." His message of resilience serves as a beacon for anyone facing seemingly insurmountable health challenges.Have you been struggling with IBD?

IBD Drive Time: David Rubin, MD, on ACG Guidelines for Ulcerative Colitis by Gastroenterology Learning Network

Send us a textKimberly LaRose's journey from a nine-year diagnostic odyssey to creating an award-winning vodka demonstrates the remarkable resilience found in the IBD community. After struggling with unexplained symptoms that doctors repeatedly misdiagnosed, Kimberly finally received her Crohn's disease diagnosis and discovered that gluten and corn were major inflammation triggers for her body.Rather than seeing her dietary restrictions as limitations, Kimberly embraced a philosophy of "replacing, not removing." This positive mindset would prove transformative when she attended an event where she couldn't eat or drink anything due to her restrictions. What began as a half-joking call to a friend about creating their own vodka evolved into Wisher Vodka – a sugar beet-based spirit that's gluten-free, grain-free, and vegan.The path from concept to award-winning product wasn't simple. Kimberly and her co-founder Emily researched 300 distillers, visited 60 personally, and developed a unique production process that includes lab testing every batch to ensure purity. Their commitment to quality and transparency has earned them multiple prestigious awards, including Grand Vodka of the Year with a remarkable 98-point taste rating from the Bartender Spirits Award.Beyond the business success, Kimberly's story highlights how health challenges can unexpectedly open new doors. "I wouldn't have created Wisher had I not been diagnosed with Crohn's," she reflects. Her work supporting the Crohn's and Colitis Foundation further demonstrates her commitment to the IBD community that sparked her entrepreneurial journey.Whether you're navigating dietary restrictions, seeking inspiration for managing chronic illness, or simply appreciate the story behind your spirits, Kimberly's journey reminds us that sometimes our greatest struggles lead to our most meaningful creations. Links: Sip with Confidence! - Wisher Vodka's websiteCocktail recipesLet's get social!!Follow us on Instagram!Follow us on Facebook!Follow us on Twitter!

In this episode, Tina shares four key insights she wishes she knew when first diagnosed with ulcerative colitis 14 years ago. Tina emphasizes that dietary changes can be hit-or-miss, not all about food, and sometimes medication is necessary despite initial fears. She also discusses the emotional component of living with chronic illness and the importance of self-advocacy and tailoring treatment to individual needs. Tina talks about: - 4 things I wish I knew sooner about living with ulcerative colitis - How diet really affects ulcerative colitis: what worked (and what didn't) for me - Medications and UC: what helped, what didn't, and what I learned - The emotional side of ulcerative colitis: navigating stress, shame, and uncertainty Connect with Tina Haupert: https://carrotsncake.com/ Facebook: Carrots 'N' Cake https://www.facebook.com/carrotsncake Instagram: carrotsncake https://www.instagram.com/carrotsncake YouTube: Tina Haupert https://www.youtube.com/user/carrotsncake Pinterest: Carrots 'N' Cake Hormone Testing & Nutrition Coaching https://www.pinterest.com/carrotsncake/ About Tina Haupert: Tina Haupert is the owner of Carrots ‘N' Cake as well as a Certified Nutrition Coach and Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner (FDN-P).

Send us a textNavigating the workplace while managing inflammatory bowel disease can feel like walking a tightrope—balancing health needs against career responsibilities. This episode cuts through the confusion with straightforward, practical advice from someone who truly understands both sides of the equation.Employment attorney Abbe Feitelberg returns to share her unique perspective as both an IBD patient and legal expert. She breaks down the Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA) and Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) in clear, accessible terms that empower you to advocate for yourself in any workplace situation. From understanding which companies must comply with these laws to learning exactly what paperwork you need, Abbe demystifies the process of securing your workplace rights.The conversation explores common misconceptions, like believing managers need detailed medical information (they don't!) or that requesting accommodations might hurt your career (it shouldn't!). You'll discover practical strategies for maintaining privacy while getting the support you need, whether that's intermittent leave for treatments, flexible scheduling during flares, or immediate bathroom access. Most importantly, you'll learn how to document everything properly to protect yourself if issues arise.What makes this episode particularly valuable is how it addresses real-world scenarios: When should you disclose your condition?

Today's witness is from the Encounter Ministries Website. Patrick Reis and Father Mathias Thelen of the Diocese of Lansing, Michigan, founded Encounter Ministries (www.encounterministries.us). They say the ministry's purpose is “to unleash the transforming power of the Holy Spirit in the world through teaching, equipping, and activating disciples to demonstrate the love of God through the power of the Holy Spirit.” Its work has been endorsed by many bishops in the U.S. and elsewhere. The ministry offers a two-year training program, the Encounter School of Ministry (www.encounterschool.org). I graduated from this program in May of 2024. It was an amazing 2 years of life. The people teaching my class and my classmates were amazing. I learned so much in two years and have been able to put what I learned into practice. That is one of the most amazing things about the Encounter School of Ministry: they teach you something new each week, but then you immediately put it into practice with something they call activations.Encounter Ministries' healing services are like nothing I have ever been to before. They start with praise and worship for a good hour before the service. Then they have a Gospel teaching about healing and give some real-life examples. Next, they have the team come up and give words of knowledge. This means that the team asks the Lord for what He wants to heal that night, and anyone who hears something goes up and shares it. Oftentimes, people are healed just by the word of knowledge. They hear that God wants to heal them, and they are healed. It can be that simple. Next, they do corporate healing. This means that the leader names a part of the body, and anyone suffering from that raises their hand. Those sitting around this person pray over the person. The leader tells them what to say, and the whole audience repeats it. There are so many healings that occur during this section of the healing service, which is amazing because it is just regular, everyday people praying over them. It is not people with special training, it is not people who are super holy and pray all the time. It is just whoever happened to sit next to that person for the service. It is such a good reminder that we are not the ones doing the healing; the Lord is. It is also a good reminder that God can use anyone.The healing services usually end with individual prayer for those who were not healed earlier in the service. These healing services are so powerful, and they even host them on Zoom sometimes. The witness for today, Gabriella, is from their website. Gabby suffered from Lupus, Endometriosis, and Ulcerative Colitis. She happened to be attending an Encounter Conference online when she heard Father call out the words of knowledge for her particular body parts that she was struggling with, and she knew she would be cured. Here is her story. I will put a link to the original testimony in the show notes.

Send us a textWhen you're battling inflammatory bowel disease, the wounds aren't always visible. Beyond the physical symptoms lies a reality many patients face but few discuss openly – the psychological impact of medical trauma.Dr. Christina Jagielski, clinical health psychologist at Michigan Medicine, brings her expertise to this powerful conversation about trauma-informed care in the IBD community. With surprising candor, she reveals how she discovered that approximately half of gastroenterologists avoid screening for trauma history – not because they don't care, but because they feel unprepared to respond appropriately to what patients might share.Through Robin's emotional personal story of emergency room panic attacks and medical gaslighting, we witness firsthand how past medical experiences shape current healthcare interactions. The conversation dives deep into practical strategies for both patients and providers: how to communicate triggers without reliving trauma, why certain medical settings feel unsafe, and what small changes can make enormous differences in patient comfort.Dr. Jagielski challenges the longstanding approach of selective trauma screening based on gender or diagnosis, advocating instead for universal trauma-informed care. "People living with IBD are so much more than their labs and test results," she reminds us, emphasizing that acknowledging patients' lived experiences is just as crucial as treating their physical symptoms.Whether you're a patient who's experienced medical trauma, a healthcare provider seeking to create safer spaces, or someone supporting a loved one with IBD, this episode offers transformative insights into healing the hidden psychological wounds of chronic illness.

In this episode of the RCP Medicine podcast, Professor Ailsa Hart and Dr Eathar Shakweh discuss how to approach managing Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) in the acute medical setting. This is the first episode of a 2-part series, with a focus on ulcerative colitis.  IBD is a common condition, affecting 1 in 123 people in the UK. The 2024 State of the IBD Care in the UK report highlighted the urgent need to shorten time to diagnosis and initiate early treatment to minimise the risk of IBD-related complications. Acute and general medicine physicians have an important role to play in diagnosing and managing IBD. This podcast will equip medics at all stages of training with the necessary knowledge to approach this heterogenous and complex condition. Professor Hart is Director of IBD Research at St Mark's Hospital, London, United Kingdom and a world-leading expert in IBD. Eathar is an IBD Clinical Research Fellow at St Mark's and Imperial, with a special interest in perianal fistulising Crohn's disease. Crohn's & Colitis UK (CCUK) Websitehttps://crohnsandcolitis.org.uk/This is a valuable resource for patients and healthcare professionals alike, containing a wealth of information on IBD investigation and management.British Society of Gastroenterology (BSG) guidelines on Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) - 2019Lamb, Christopher Andrew et al. “British Society of Gastroenterology consensus guidelines on the management of inflammatory bowel disease in adults.” Gut vol. 68,Suppl 3 (2019): s1-s106. doi:10.1136/gutjnl-2019-318484https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31562236/For interested listeners, these are the national guidelines for IBD diagnosis and management.

Hey, Heal Squad! You may know her from viral videos and billion-view challenges, but today, Rebecca Zamolo is sharing the story behind the screen—one marked by pain, resilience, and radical honesty. In Part 1 of our raw and inspiring conversation, Rebecca opens up about her battle with chronic illness, the life-altering decision to remove her colon, and how that journey impacted her self-worth, identity, and relationships. She walks us through the emotional toll of IVF, the heartbreak of miscarriage, and what it was like to navigate it all while being in the public eye. We explore how she rebuilt her strength (physically and emotionally) and why she chose to share these deeply personal moments with her audience. Whether you're navigating a health crisis, infertility, or just need a reminder that healing is possible, Rebecca's story will move you and empower you to keep going. HEALERS & HEAL-LINERS:  Chronic illness doesn't care about your plans. Rebecca was at the top of her career when her health crashed. Her body forced her to stop, reassess, and choose healing—even when it meant removing her colon. You can be grateful and grieving at the same time. Rebecca shares the emotional rollercoaster of IVF and miscarriage, revealing how it's possible to feel joy for others while holding heartbreak for yourself. Silence breeds shame. She explains how speaking publicly about her miscarriage helped her release shame and allowed others to feel seen in their own stories.

In this week's episode, I chat with Claire about her two very different birth experiences at public hospitals in Melbourne. Claire's journey began with meticulous preparation - she and her partner Aaron spent six months optimising their health with a naturopath before trying to conceive. Her first pregnancy was textbook perfect, leading to a beautiful physiological birth with her daughter Amelia. However, her second pregnancy brought new challenges when growth scans indicated a "big baby," leading to discussions about potential induction that Claire navigated with confidence and research. Both births were supported through the Midwifery Group Practice (MGP) model, though Claire's experiences highlight the importance of advocating for the care you want. Her story beautifully demonstrates how preparation, knowledge, and trusting your body can lead to positive birth outcomes, even when circumstances change. ___ A birth support partner offers physical and emotional support throughout labour and birth. Your birth partner should be mentioned in your birth plan, particularly in regards to how they will advocate for you to your midwife or doctor.

Send us a textAmanda Phillips never imagined her lifelong battle with Crohn's disease would transform into a business helping other people living with chronic illnesses. But after decades of unexplained stomach pains, missed diagnoses, and learning to navigate life with IBD, that's exactly what happened.Amanda takes us through her journey from childhood stomach aches dismissed as "just constipation" to her eventual diagnosis at 17. We explore how she learned to identify her personal flare triggers—stress and GI bugs being the major culprits—and the profound anxiety this created around situations most people take for granted, like commuting to work or being around sick family members.The pandemic became an unexpected turning point in Amanda's health journey. Working remotely eliminated the bathroom-related stress of her daily commute. When her company pushed employees back to the office, Amanda fought for accommodations, facing frustrating resistance from HR despite documentation showing remote work improved her health and performance.The birth of Be Well came during a February 2022 hospitalization, when Amanda found herself freezing in a standard hospital gown. Looking around at the medical wear available, she thought, "I can do better than this." What makes Amanda's approach unique is her commitment to meaningful design. Every Be Well product—from symptom tracking journals to discreet pill holders to comfort items with inspirational quotes—comes from lived experience and continuous customer feedback with a focus on prioritizing patient comfort, dignity, and practicality. Now she's expanding into new territory with hospital gowns, non-metal MRI hoodies, and more innovations. Whether you're living with chronic illness or supporting someone who is, this episode offers inspiration in turning personal challenges into purpose and creating solutions that truly understand patient needs.Links: Link to the BeWell websiteLink to BroGloInformation about IBD and work- Crohn's & Colitis Foundation- USAMy guest co-host, Stacey Calabro's episodeLet's get social!!Follow us on Instagram!Follow us on Facebook!Follow us on Twitter!

Send us a textWhen your gastroenterologist is also your dad, navigating the complexities of Crohn's disease takes on a whole new dimension. Angie's powerful story reveals a journey of discovery, resilience, and unexpected insights into managing IBD through life's major transitions.Diagnosed in 2017 following a period of intense personal stress, Angie shares her quest to understand why she developed Crohn's without family history. Her analytical approach has led to fascinating observations about potential triggers and management strategies. Most notably, she's discovered her Apple Watch provides possible early warnings of impending flares through heart rate variability changes.The conversation takes a particularly compelling turn when Angie discusses her pregnancy experience. While initially smooth, a flare during her third trimester created significant concerns about her baby's development. She candidly shares how her medical team balanced medication adjustments with pregnancy safety, ultimately leading to the birth of her healthy son. Beyond medical management, Angie reveals how her experience with cold exposure seemed to help her, and how changing her relationship with exercise from aesthetic goals to gratitude for movement transformed her approach to fitness. Her perspective on finding meaning through chronic illness challenges listeners to consider how difficulties might lead to unexpected gifts – deeper connections, greater self-awareness, and opportunities to help others.Whether you're newly diagnosed, preparing for pregnancy with IBD, or simply seeking fresh insights on managing a chronic condition, Angie's story offers valuable perspectives from someone who's navigating these waters with honesty, humor, and hope. Listen now to discover how technology, family support, and shifting perspectives can create a path forward through the challenges of inflammatory bowel disease.Links: Our episode with Natalie HaydenNatalie's InstagramOur episode with Dr. Tiffany TaftOur episode with Josie McGarva re: heart rate variabilityOur 2nd episode with Jose McGarva and also Stacey Collins, RD about researchLet's get social!!Follow us on Instagram!Follow us on Facebook!Follow us on Twitter!

In this episode of NP Pulse, nurse practitioners Jessica Crimaldi and Christina Hanson explore the evolving landscape of ulcerative colitis (UC), a chronic inflammatory bowel disease affecting over a million Americans. With decades of GI experience, Jessica and Christina break down the burden of UC on patients' physical and psychosocial well-being, review distinguishing features from Crohn's disease, and examine the increasing prevalence tied to lifestyle and environmental factors. This important conversation dives into the era of precision medicine, highlighting a new generation of targeted therapies, updated clinical guidelines, and best practices for early diagnosis, management, and shared decision-making. From understanding disease severity and medication classes to addressing extraintestinal manifestations, cancer screening, and vaccination recommendations, this episode is a must-listen for NPs striving to provide optimal, up-to-date care for patients with ulcerative colitis.
