About this title

Synopsis

A practical guide to self-diagnosis and effective management of IBD, covering the latest treatment options

 

Inflammatory bowel disease, such as Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, can be hard to diagnose, but is a condition that can severely disrupt one's life. There are many different forms of treatment that can lead to long remissions, but no immediate cure exists. This invaluable guide helps sufferers diagnose their disease correctly and formulate the best treatment to keep symptoms under control so they can lead full lives. With the aid of self-assessment exercises and the latest medical research, readers will discover what their condition is and how severe it is, the different drug treatments available, when to consider surgery, and how to control symptoms using diet and lifestyle. With clear, accessible information and effective guidance on treatment, this guide will help sufferers manage symptoms and take control of their condition.
