This point in the winter for me is usually some of the worst for me with my mood. Abdominal pain doesn't help any, nor does constant grey skies.

How is everyone else holding up. I know some of y'all are really struggling, and I just want you to know you have a cheerleader over here rooting for ya.

(relatively new to having UC) I started my first prescription for UC and it ended up giving me pancreatitis and almost two weeks in the hospital 😬. I was released today.

While not necessarily the funnest experience, I am a bit less skiddish of needles.

Mentally it hit me hard. First time a new prescription didn’t work positively, first MRI, CT, etc…

Being back home is nice, but i am not really enjoying anything like I used to. though I’m optimistic that the feeling is temporary.
