Today marks my 12th year recognising World IBD Day Today marks my 12th year recognising World IBD Day whilst living with IBDโ€ฆ but this year, I found myself asking a question I never thought I would.

Do I actually still have IBD?

After 3 surgeries, having everything from the ileum down removed and now living with a stoma, my Ulcerative Colitis is no longer active. Thereโ€™s nowhere left for the disease to flare in the way it once didโ€ฆ so where does that leave me?

Am I someone who had IBD? Or am I still someone living with it?

In todayโ€™s blog post, I wanted to explore that question because IBD is so much more than just a bowel disease. Even without active disease, I still live with the effects it left behind.

A stoma gave me my quality of life back after years of immense pain and failed treatments, but it isnโ€™t a cure. Itโ€™s a management route with its own ups and downs.

Iโ€™d love to know if anyone else with a stoma has ever questioned where they fit within the IBD community now ๐Ÿ’œ
