The Snuggles Are the Thing
Manage episode 302156699 series 2327091
How do your pets help you with your IBD? I speak to Meredith Mangold, "The Bowel Battling Badass,” about the role her dogs have played in her life. She became seriously ill with ulcerative colitis, which progressed into a rare complication called toxic megacolon. As her journey with IBD progressed, she eventually needed colectomy surgery, and has since been diagnosed with other immune-mediated conditions. Her two dogs, however, have become a big part of her advocacy work and they help her manage the pain and loneliness that come with chronic illness.
Concepts discussed on this episode:
- Toxic megacolon
- CT Scan
- Ileus
- Extra-intestinal Manifestations of IBD
- Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS)
- Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome
- Steroid-Induced Osteoporosis
