You've just been diagnosed with IBD. Now what?

Being diagnosed with ulcerative colitis or Crohn's disease can be overwhelming, but it doesn't have to be. Ten years on from the original, You Don't Look Sick: Quick and Dirty Tips for Surviving IBD by author and IBD veteran AW Cross gives you a first-hand, non-medical perspective about what to expect from your illness and how to get through it with your sanity (and your favorite underwear) intact.

-Cope with the physical consequences and emotional impact of IBD

-Pack a survival kit and leave your bathroom with confidence

-Dress, eat, and have sex

-Deal with healthcare professionals and enjoy your stays in the hospital

-Endure poop jokes and use social media responsibly

-Put on your big boy/girl pants and deal with it

Whether you've just been diagnosed or struggled with IBD for years, if you're determined not to let your illness define you, this book is for you.

If you'd rather wallow in self-pity, have no sense of humor about your illness, and hate kittens and babies, DON'T BUY THIS BOOK
