We are going to talk poop. (And before anyone pipes up with the classic ‘nothing new there’ it’s actually serious.) So, since picking up a particularly nasty bout of food poisoning last year in Vietnam my bowels have not been ‘Normal’. Tummy swells and hurts as soon as I eat anything and let’s just say
I know that many of you are feeling under pressure to decide upon and declare your New Year’s Resolutions.

I stress myself and torment myself when something goes wrong let’s say in work – a blunder/mistake – I can’t shrug it off. The guilt, embarrassment, judgment from peers/ managers latches
Things are good, you’ve had low impacting symptoms for a while and you’re starting to remember your pre-diagnosis life. Surviving quite happily on a steady dose of painkillers and enjoying the festive fun. Not so fast pal!

I don’t know the answer to this question so please don’t berate me over what I’m about to discuss. Is self care selfish? Of course we know, we all need to take care of ourselves that little bit better & stop saying yes to things that make us miserable. But at the same time what
