This week, I dig into one of the most frustrating realities of IBD: the gap between clinical remission and actually feeling well. With research showing up to 60% of people in remission still experience ongoing symptoms, and anxiety and depression affecting more than a third of IBD patients even when disease is "controlled," this episode is for everyone who's been told they're doing great on paper and still didn't feel it.

Some sources I talk about in the episode: Science Direct, NIH, Crohn's & Colitis Foundation

In the first episode of From the Bathroom Floor, I break down a major finding from Digestive Disease Week 2026: a combination drug therapy showing real promise for IBD patients who've run out of options. I also talk honestly about why hope and exhaustion can coexist in the same body.

Some sources I talk about in the episode: News Medical, NBC News.
