Our guest is Amy Kelly, Head of Communications and Fundraising at Crohn's & Colitis Ireland. Amy was diagnosed with Crohn's Disease when she was 27 and shares her lived experiences and the impacts and adjustments she has made to her life.
Amy explained that inflammatory bowel disease is an autoimmune disease and how it differs from irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Amy walks us through what the symptoms are and shares some interesting statistics about the impacts of IBD on patients.
The 'poo taboo' campaign seeks to encourage and educate what healthy bowel movements are and what they should look and feel like to help spot and seek diagnosis at an earlier stage.
Amy also hosts the "GutCast" podcast – the first podcast for people living with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) in Ireland.
