It’s #WorldSleepDay, but #IBD and sleep aren't always on speaking terms. 😴 Between nighttime urgency and #IBDFatigue, getting rest is a battle. How do you manage your #SleepHygiene when your #Crohns or #Colitis has other plans?

FML. The #colitis flare is still happening, and OMG the cramps are killer.

Single-cell transcriptomic analysis reveals RNA-binding protein dysregulation in immune checkpoint inhibitor–induced colitis RNA-binding protein dysregulation in immune checkpoint inhibitor–induced colitis.

Haobei Ran, Lipan Zhang and colleagues report that "Single-cell transcriptomic analysis reveals RNA-binding protein dysregulation in #ImmuneCheckpointInhibitor –induced #Colitis"

New in the ER, wearing a blue hospital gown with messy down hair. They have a clown makeup IG filter on and look sad and sick. Caption reads: my fault for waiting so long to come in 🥲

New in their ER bed with a cutesy bubble heart star filter, throwing a lazy cute three finger sign with an IV in their hand. Caption reads: 4:12AM ooooooooooooooOoooo

Reminder not to try toughing it out even when a flare/relapse is past the point of no return. If you are able to, seek medical intervention. You are your greatest protection.

(Don’t girlboss yourself when you’re UNWELL! Be kind!)

Food fear is a clinical symptom of #IBD, not a failure of willpower. For #Eating #Disorders #Awareness #Week, I’m sharing how new research validates the mental toll of eating with #Crohns or #Colitis: advocatinghealth.com/2026/02/26/i...

Do you feel a sense of dread when staring at the fridge? 💕✨

Why we need to talk about the mental impact of chronic illness I was diagnosed with ulcerative colitis (UC) in 2007, but it took me seven years to be able to talk or share much about that experience, the emergency surgery that followed shortly after, and the c…

It took me 7 years to talk about my #UC & #Stoma surgeries. We focus on the physical, but the mental impact of #ChronicIllness is just as vital. I’ve written about processing #MedicalTrauma & reclaiming your identity: advocatinghealth.com/2026/02/23/t...

It’s #EatingDisorderAwarenessWeek.

As an #IBD sufferer myself (I was diagnosed with #Colitis over 10 years ago) I wanted to build an app I would actually use. My aim was to make a simple to use app - in my experience Doctors don't need super-granular data, they just want tp see trends over time. #IBDDiary #ReleasingSoon

My #IBD app, #IBDDIary, is now LIVE! It should be appearing across Apple Appstores in all locations over the next few hours. Try it FREE for 14 days
