Associated Conditions


Many of us with Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) and Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) are also faced with the challenge of dealing with other autoimmune conditions. In this section you will find information on some of the conditions associated with IBD and IBS, as well as information on the various drugs used to treat bowel diseases and other autoimmune conditions. We have also included research articles that may be of interest to those facing the challenge of coping with a constellation of autoimmune conditions.

Our aim in providing this information is only to give you a place to start learning. Many visitors to this site are just beginning SCD, and some of you will be coping with the shock of being newly diagnosed with IBD and IBS. We wanted to give you enough information to allow you to take a deep breath, get a good night's sleep, and have a place from which to start learning in the morning.

Please note: None of this information is intended for the purpose of self-diagnosis, or in place of appropriate medical advice.

This section is still under construction. Only some of the topics listed are live links, but we've listed the entire contents of the section to give you an idea what you can expect to find here in the future. Please bear with us in the mean time.
