When I was first diagnosed with UC I just felt completely out of
control of my own body which was a really frightening aspect. I had
never even heard of UC and the fact that things are being poked up your
bum at regular intervals was just so embarrassing.Then when I read the
leaflets and discovered that some people end up with a stoma I beacame
really freaked out. I spent the first month thinking I would end up
with a bag and cancer! - which was often the first headline that
appeared when I tyed IBD into my computer. I hated the fact that I
couldn't sort it with a couple of paracetamols. Accepting that I have
an ongoing disease is still hard for me to deal with. Finding NACC was
a godsend as are other responsible sites such as this
