Recent study reported "Perceived stress predicted change in IBD symptoms, and IBD symptoms predicted change in perceived stress" supporting the bi-directional stress-IBD symptoms hypothesis https://t.co/UI4nWLchDx

The new #IBDstandards emphasize the role of empowering people with #Crohns
and #Colitis to self-manage their conditions. What would help most with this?

Ever wished that, just for a day, your friends and family could understand what it’s like to have #Crohns or #Colitis?

[Matthew Brookes @GastroMJB]

When it comes to benchmarking a hospital against #IBDstandards what do we think is the single most important factor in the IBD service which best measure the quality service #FGDEBATE #bsg2019

@CrohnsDigested I don't believe stress is a trigger of Crohn's onset but it definitely is a factor in disease activity. 3 key rules of looking after yourself, eat nutritionally good food, sleep and rest as often as you are able and keep away from stressful environments!

[Crohn's Digested @CrohnsDigested]

Studies have shown that 74% of IBD patients believe psychological factors have played a role in triggering the onset of disease or relapse of their illness

How important is your psychological state in IBD? Over the next month we will be focusing on the role of stress in contributing to IBD symptoms. #IBDhealth #IBDchat

Blogging is great for making one think more deeply and objectively about the problems we all face when confronting chronic illness #hachat
