Post-op ileus after bowel surgery

First frost ❄️ The reality of #ChronicIllness and #ChronicFatigue 🤗 Things people with chronic conditions say vs what we actually mean! Getting diagnosed with #ChronicPain feels like stepping into a room where no one speaks your language.💬 Being this resilient human, pushing through pain, flares, surgery and trauma was never a choice. Endurance was a necessary part of the path I was on. I couldn't turn back, plot a new course, or change where I was going. But I also couldn't give up. I was watching Star Trek: Strange New Worlds recently when I related to a quote so much from Dr. M'Benga, that I stopped to write it down: How do you figure out which foods your body tolerates, and which ones are a bad idea? 🫒 Another swap on the mission to reduce #microplastics! There's a charity bag collection tomorrow morning, so what better time to start going through what's in my spare room storage boxes? Sometimes it really is the small things in life. Today I am super happy because I have been productive at home and at work. My mum let me know that the Celebroty Pottery Throw Down series has finished, so that's ready for me to binge. I've got a delicious meal almost ready for me to eat and appreciate, plus a gorgeous dessert. And my latch hook kit arrived just in time for me to start watching The Celebrity Pottery Throw Down. It really does just feel like I'm in a flow state and everything is coming up roses 🌹 Your lived experience with #IBD matters, and healthcare researchers need to hear it! If you live with a #ChronicIllness and you see this post, please can you drop the condition(s) you live with in the comments. I am interested to see who I am reaching!
