Summary
In episode 3 of the Talking Sh*t podcast, I speak with Nadia, who shares her journey of living with ulcerative colitis since age 15. Years after managing her disease, Nadia got diagnosed with colorectal cancer, which led to an inevitable surgery. Nadia and I dive into what life is like with an ostomy. Nadia also discusses the emotional and physical challenges of managing IBD, the importance of patient advocacy, and the support she found through online communities. She emphasizes the need for awareness and understanding of IBD, the misconceptions surrounding it, and her hope for a future cure.
