So relatable 😂😭 I was having diarrhea more than 20x/day. I merely got a “it’s #longcovid, bummer” shrug from a GI dr. My awesome PCP ran a bunch of tests. Took the results back to GI who said “oops, looks like #microscopiccolitis - my bad.” 🙄

“I know this because it’s happening in my body as we speak. #LongCovid has allowed my innards to party a little too hard for the holidays. In fact, they’ve developed the hangover of a lifetime: #MicroscopicColitis": https://buff.ly/4jq2tRm #LongHauler #ChronicPain #spoonie

Recommendations for dairy-free cheese substitutes that don’t taste like glue?

Note: I can’t digest oats/oat milk, soy, or corn, and I’m avoiding almond milk for now.

What’s it really like to live with #IBD?

What challenges do you face day to day?

Very happy to share this Feb commentary in @lancetgastrohep.bsky.social co-authored w @mayoclinic.org #IBD Dr. Edward V. Loftus Jr. - making our case for an urgent repositioning of #microscopiccolitis under the "true" #IBD umbrella - long overdue for this disease.

“ #MicroscopicColitis is often missed because it is small..so it can take a while to get properly diagnosed. Unlike #UlcerativeColitis, you can’t see it in a #colonoscopy. You have to take a #biopsy to find it”: buff.ly/4jq2tRm by <a href="https://bsky.app/profile/did:plc:265db7sm562y3622h3t62koz" class="hover:underline text-blue-600 dark:text-sky-400 no-card-link" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-link="bsky-mention">@hollychessman.bsky.social #ChronicIllness

In case you want to know my experience as a person with #longcovid, today I’ve had to run to the restroom 24 times so far since I first woke up at 2AM. And I mean RUN like my pants depended on in, ‘cause they did. 😂😭 Yay #microscopiccolitis #chronicillness

The feeling that microscopic colitis is probably the reason for all your symptoms and no one would listen really takes some time to work through and grieve for who I was and who I could be.

Now I wait

Having had chronic illnesses for as long as I can remember, getting hit with one I didn't know about and having it feel like the would is collapsing around you in less than 24 hours is really a mind fuck!

Alert: Yummy food find! I bought Coco Rolls at Wegman’s supermarket. No dairy or gluten. Yes coconut and eggs. Amazing light texture. Delicious flavor. Insanely addictive!

Oral contraceptive use is linked to increased risk for #microscopiccolitis; hormonal exposure may be an underrecognized risk factor for chronic watery diarrhea. #DDW2026
