Fiona is one of my favourites of guests on this channel! She is so well-versed and speaks calmly. Also seems very genuine and all around wonderful.
she was great!
Frida...thank you....your comment made me go all misty eyed , so touched 😍
@@mrsfdonovan Hii I have a question
@@mrsfdonovan with IBD in all do you get headaches
@Hannah Witton no matter disability & disability is different.
This was so interesting, I love how Fiona made everything understandable without dumbing it down. Specialist nurses are amazing, I will look up if we have them in Spain!
This had solid "guest speaker in health class friday fun day" vibes and I'm all for it. I like that you made it a bit of a game.
I’m a teacher and this was SO informative and useful in understanding a bit more about what my students who suffer from these conditions are going through. Thank you both!
This video could be shown in class, with Hannah's permission of course.
@@ireallyreallyhategoogle no permission necessary
@@robertaboagyevantrout2215 It's Hannah's content, it belongs to her.
I was diagnosed with Crohn’s 13 years ago, and have been trying to explain to people the difference between these two for nearly as long. Now I’m just going to send them this video!
haha yay!
I wish we had IBD nurses in the US. It would make my life so much easier....
Take Black seed oil and ...no Flares...No pain...God bless you
My cousin got diagnosed with Crohn's like 10 days ago. So this will be good to hear
As a midwife myself I’m impressed by Fiona’s wide knowledge and proffesionalism she looks like someone I would totally trust as a patient
As a med student studying GI medicine right now, this video is super helpful to remember the finer differences, thank you Hannah!
I often mishear lyrics. Before looking it up I always thougt that the line "a girl with kaleidoscope eyes" in Lucy in The Sky with Diamonds was "A girl with colitis goes by" 😂
Great video, I'm sure it's very helpful to many people!
She’s so lovely! I could listen to her talk all day!
My dad has Crohn's disease and my mum has a form of ibd. Neither of them really talk about it and I'm a bit worried my bowels are genetically done for. This is really fascinating to watch and actually begin to understand why my dad was in hospital for periods of my childhood ✌️
Got diagnosed with Chrons last month, really nice to learn about this stuff in this way rather than just reading lots - it can be daunting x great video :) x
Crohn's, not Chrons
Kayleigh Fletcher avoid surgeries if you can, diagnosed in ‘93..... good luck young lady
If Fiona started a UA-cam channel of guided sleep/meditations, I would watch the [output] out of that! Such a soothing voice.
Love the crafts and the video Hannah :) signs helped make it even easier to follow
Rebecca Hurford ..don’t think my kids would agree #shoutymum 😂
Such a good video (as always). Just wanted to mention though that biologics that aren't anti-TNF also exist. IL-23 and IL-17 inhibitor biologics are also used in treating Crohns disease. Also there are a load more symptoms that were missed such as mouth ulcers and low levels of vitamins in crohns and extreme pain in both. There are also a load of symptoms of both that are outside the digestive system such as eye inflammation and arthritis. I know when making a video you have to fit the most important things so I completely get why not everything could be mentioned but wanted to put it in a comment for people looking for more info.
What a brilliant, informative video! My godmum has UC too, so I like educating myself more, for her sake.
I was diagnosed with colitis nearly 10 years ago and I have learnt new things about my condition. Thank you :)
Was so nice meeting you on Saturday
I love your chats with other people to help our understanding in such a variety of stuff! Thank you so much for this! It was super useful for understanding when before I heard of you I had no idea of the possibilities and people who have these diseases
It is super noble and awesome for you to do this! I trust you the most with explaining the differences; there is so much unreliable things on the internet about this, and I really appreciate your TRUE knowledge. IBD nurses rock! Mine is absolutely amazing. I finally found a video that i can show my friends about this so they understand. ❤️❤️❤️ you have so much support from me and my family, and I hope you are well! Good job fighting, and you are like my idol! Whenever I am feeling down, it is just nice to know that there is someone else out there like me! You have been a big mentor to me and I just wanted to let you know.
Whilst I'd picked-up on a lot of the info since my Crohn's diagnosis 10 years ago, it was great to see it all put into such a concise and easy to understand package. Thanks to you both for doing the video. :-)
Btw Humira injector pens rock.
Saves many trips to the hospital for infusion drips.
Marvelous bit of work, Fiona & Hannah! I personally don’t have either condition but know a few people who are affected. This short video has provided more information than any reading I’ve done. I feel I have a better understanding of the two processes & the subtle but significant differences. Great Job!!
I was diagnosed about 3 years ago and your channel and videos have helped so much!
This makes so much more sense. Thank you Hannah. Thank you for helping me become more aware. I love you 💜💜💜💜
This video shows how wonderful and helpful nurses are!
This was very helpful and educational. Thank you for hosting Fiona for us.
So helpful as an IBD patient to actually hear an explanation of how each treatments works!
Sharing this as it’s the best way to explain that I am 1 in the 420 people with UC and exactly what I go through on a daily basis. Yay nurse Fiona for being so clear and informative 😊
Such a great video and thanks for featuring me in your last video :)
So glad that you did this topic. I have UC and the fatigue is incredible, in spite of having it reasonably under control. I literally feel your pain.
I have definitely learned something and in such a fun and exciting form! :) We want Fiona back!
Thanks for bringing awareness to UC and Crohns! I've been diagnosed for nearly 10 years with UC and its great to have a video that can explain what it is to other people in my back pocket!
Thank you for this video, I've recently been diagnosed with Colitis and have been a bit confused to be honest so thank you. IBD nurses are so great I feel so lucky to have access to them.
I never thought about the difference. Thank you for explaining. Also thanks to the nurse, she was great.
My mom has had both since she went to uni and I grew up with her leading self help groups and bringing awareness and advice.
The more I actually learn about it myself the more aware I get of everything she went through just at my age and the more proud I am of the work she does. 💫
Love from Germany.
Thanks for a really interesting video! And massive thanks to Fiona for explaining everything so clearly.
Found out today that I might have IBD. So glad that I was already subscribed to your channel so I knew I could come and watch your videos to answer lots of my questions. Thank you!
Ive just started a Master in Nutrion and Biomedicine, and the day you posted this we had a lecture on Crohns and UC! Love it. Fiona was lovely!
I have heard these mentioned so much and it was nice to actually get definitions and a better understanding
Thank you so much! I have UC and my Gastro would not explain how they knew I had UC and not Crohn's. It has always been a worry of mine that I had Crohn's but it just simply hadn't spread to other areas yet. This video explained to me the difference and how it is they knew which one I had. It was great and it put my mind at ease, weirdly enough. Much love, stay well
Damn this video is so informative!! Also I'm so appreciate of that wonderful nurse and her participation! Too bad I live in the states and our healthcare system suuuuuucks
IBD nurses are absolutely amazing. Love mine. She's helped me a lot! UC here
I was diagnosed with UC in May. Ever since then, I'm constantly seeking out more information on IBD and this video was SO, SO helpful.
Hannah, I bow to you. You are so positive and wonderful, even with the disease that absorbs so much life energy. I have MC for more than twenty years, I can feel with you in so many things. ❤️
i have crohns and my sister has colitis and i've never truly understood the difference in our diseases. This was sooo great! What an informative and fun video for an important topic :)
I recently underwent some testing for Crohn's and you videos have been so helpful. They are knowledgeable and real and have mad me feel like I'm not alone in my pain.
This is amazing, I actually find all of this so interesting!!!
Thank you Fiona for so generousku explaining many aspects of crohn's and colitis! This was a hugely informative video.
LunarLugh my pleasure, was fun to do Hannah is brilliant!
This was a really interesting video, Hannah! I love how you two were able to break it down for those who did not know much about either disease 😊😘
I just got diagnosed with UC a few weeks ago after having symptoms for years. I am having my second flare right now, I'm so glad I found your channel!!
We love this video Hannah, thanks to you and Fiona for the great information!
I just want to say, I was diagnosed with Crohn's disease back in October of this year after suffering from what I was told was IBS for almost two decades. I developed a fistula in my ileum which put me in the hospital. In some way, I'm happy it happened because it led to a solid diagnosis. But, about a year before, I found your channel and it was so helpful to me because even though we have different forms of IBD, I felt like I could really relate to someone and you were so knowledgable. In fact, it was because of your channel that I even suggested UC and CD to my primary who then referred me to a GI specialist. Thank you for your openness and your willingness to share your life with the internet. You're amazing, I love your content and it's just really nice to have a channel to turn to for IBD where I don't feel so alone with everything I'm dealing with right now.
I don't have either of these but I watch because it's hannah, and because i think it's a good idea to learn about invisible disabilities like these ones.
I got an info ad about crohn disease in the middle of this video. How appropriate
IBD nurses are so Amazing what we do without them ❤
I got diagnosed with Crohn's 5 years ago. This was interesting to watch as I didn't know a whole lot about UC
I have had Crohn's disease for 30 years and the treatments have improved so much. I have participated in several drug trials. I am currently on Stelara, Eustekimab.
Great video.
Been a subscriber for years but currently studying for my GI pathophysiology exam for nursing so was super helpful to refer back to. Thank you for making this!
My partner just got diagnosed with UC and your videos have really helped us understand the disease. Thank you so much, it’s made the diagnosis a lot easier to manage for both of us, and helped settled my partner into acceptance.
Thank you for sharing this! One of my relatives was diagnosed with Crohn's when she and I were both very young and I'm only just now really beginning to understand what her life is like. Thank you 👏🏻
I watched this video when it came out and a couple years later was diagnosed with IBD-- I so appreciate this resource!
Fabulous video Hannah - I have been following the Low FODMAP diet for years and for me it was a game changer but isn’t easy to commit to. I have an ileostomy but due to EDS complications and not disease. I learnt so much thank you both xx
I’ve been diagnosed with irritable bowel syndrome. Fortunately, in my case it’s not severe. I really appreciate these types of videos and the info that you’re putting out there.
My brother is being diagnosed now! He's really suffering from the symptoms of chrons and will go to the hospital next week ...this was well needed
That was very informative. The nurse sounds empathetic and knowledgeable ❤
I want to become a nurse in UK, I really appreciated this video. It was thorough, clear, just loved it! You did a great job.
I have learned so much about something I didn't know I found so interesting!
this is so interesting!! i want to go into biomedical research and immunology so this is super useful
These videos are so helpful! As a student nurse i don't feel as we get a lot of this information as our placements are sometimes too short to take a lot of information in (As someone who's had a placement in a gastro ward, I never learnt half of this stuff!) so thank you x
Great video, really informative! Just wanted to add that it is possible to have UC with an atypical, non continuous, pattern of inflammation. Can make initial diagnosis more difficult but this is how my colitis manifests.
My mother-in-law and my sister-in-law (she's only 10 years old) have Crohn's disease, so this video is really helpful!
I’ve had Crohn’s for 14 years, and even _I_ learned some stuff in this video!
Thank you so much for making this video, dry informative! I personally suffer from colitis and had never heard of it prior to getting sick.
Thanks hun I’ve just been diagnosed with IBD and waiting for further tests to say which one. This helps a lot.
I’ve got UC. Still learnt one or two things from this video :)
Edit: also I love IBD nurses. Mine is great
Amazingly informative. Anyone who has no idea about both these diseases should watch this. Having had Crohns for 27 years I already knew heaps about it, but learnt stuff about Colitis. Oh, and fistulas are horrible. I had one connecting from my bowel to my bladder. I had poo and gas (farts) going into my urinary system for almost 5 years before it was sorted. Lots of urinary infections. Soooo horrible. Gah. 🥺
One of my best friends has both UC and Chron’s. She has been living with it since she was thirteen. Her gut governs her life. ❤️ I wish we had IBD nurses here in the States.
I’m literally crying I’ve had Crohn’s Disease since I was 18 and although the last 2 years I have been in remission, I have suffered terribly. Even with a stoma and to the point where I became addicted to painkillers. Thank god for my IBD nurse. She was friggin awesome and helped me get off pethidine. I get continuous help and support god love the NHS
I love your videos, they usually teach me something new!! You do an amazing job at conveying information ❤️
thank you!
Hannah Witton you’re welcome!
My IBD nurse is an absolute hero. So under valued. Thanks for sharing - I learnt heaps!
IBD nurses are the best
my brother was diagnosed with UC about six months ago. He only went to sort it out after I found out I had with celiac's disease and he thought he might have the same. Thank you for this video, it's good to understand more!
the colitis and chron's signs are so cute haha. great video, learned a lot!
This is so helpful. My mom has colitis, and I never knew how it was different from Crohn’s
I was diagnosed with Ulcerative Colitis in 1985 at 17. I had a colectomy in 1991 then jpouch in 1992. I’ve had a few problems with it but the pros outweigh the cons. I had my daughter in 1995 with the jpouch. I just had loop ileostomy done to repair some issues with my intestine. I’m hoping to have the reversal done in the new year. I am having so many problems with the stoma, it is hell. I watch your videos and a few other ostomates and you are so comfortable with your stomas with very few issues. It’s inspiring.
Fantastic and informative video ❤️✨
I sort of wish you had asked her about any relation between the coil for birth control and flare ups! Great video :)
I was diagnosed with UC 4 and a half years ago and still didn't know the differences between Crohn's and UC until this video! Trying to find information online is so difficult and is always overly complicated, so thank you so so much Hannah and Fiona for such an informative and fun video! Lots of love xx
P.S. since you're UA-cam's resident IBD and sex/relationships expert, it would be cool having a video reflecting on sex/intimacy for people with IBD! Maybe discussing things like birth control options (UC played a major part in deciding my birth control, and others might have experienced the same), fertility, pregnancy (like risk of flare ups, etc.), and how you navigate your IBD diagnosis and management with a partner
Hannah's already made videos about sex and disability and on the topic of having children with a stoma/ibd
@@Marciocha319 I guess I meant more about IBD than a stoma, I found her videos about stomas and sex/having kids really interesting, but I'd like to see some information about just IBD :) Not all people with IBD need a stoma (like myself), but we do have challenges with intimacy, birth control and pregnancy which are unique to IBD
Thanks so much! I have Crohns and learned a lot!
IBD nurses absolutely rock❤❤❤I couldn’t survive with mine
I really loved this! Learned a lot!
I actually have Colitis as well. I was diagnosed when I was 12 but thankfully it's somewhat under control now that I'm 22. I just wanted to say that I loved seeing you on the Jingle Jam
This was excellent, well done x
Natalie was imppressive as an actress, I was surprised to hear of the accident, and subsequent investigation. So good to know that it was finally ruled an unfortunate accident.
This was such an amazing video, thank you, been diagnosed with colitis for around 5 months now and it’s still hard to come to terms with and really gets me down as I’m having such bad flare ups x
Wow this was so interesting!! I have neither but it was so good to learn about this stuff:)
Love the video. It was very informative and interesting.
I’ve had crohn’s for 7 or so years now, tried most of the treatments mentioned and had most of the effects too and still trying to find what works for me. Not fun but helps you grow as a person. Did learn a lot I didn’t know here though!
James Bayford my boyfriend was diagnosed in 2013, and recently went into remission. He said CBD / THC really helped him, if you want to give it a try!
My boyfriends mum has really bad Crohn's so it was really lovely to learn more about what she is going through! I'm not sure health care wise what is available here in South Africa with regards to IBD nurses, I feel like it's probably that great😐
That's good you have ibd nurses. I don't know if we have that in Sweden.
Hi Hannah. Long time no speak, I think the last time we spoke was in the youtuber gathering days!
I am currently going through tests for IBD, I have confirmed signs of inflammation in my bowel and referred to GI unit and now awaiting results to confirm if it is IBD for sure and whether it is UC or Crohns. I remembered you were open about your journey with colitis and I found this and it’s made me feel slightly less worried. I have been a wreck recently and I suppose the fear of the unknown has been stressful and finding out it could be UC or Crohns scared me a little. This was really helpful though.
