What have you done when you couldn’t get anyone to take the
symptoms of IBD seriously and you found yourself out of options?
For Meredith, the road to a Crohn’s disease diagnosis was long and
so frustrating that she wound up pleading for help from a
specialist she’d never met. Going online to connect with other
patients also took Meredith to places both light and dark, and she,
Jaime, and I sort through our various experiences with social media
as well as how we can work towards creating more hopeful content
for new IBD patients in the future.
