Looking OK does not equal feeling OK. This is one of the most frustrating things when it comes to having an Invisible Illness such as Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis.

Anyone that’s had an Invisible illness for more than 3 months has probably been told “You don’t look sick” at some point. I get it. I mean, what are the most common symptoms we’re dealing with?

Abdominal cramps… Can’t see those, no matter how painful they are!

Fatigue… can’t see that. We probably can’t even make it out for there to even be a possibility of anyone noticing our tired eyes!

Getting stuck on the toilet – definitely don’t see that!

In this blog, I talk about the invisible and visible symptoms; pros, cons, and unwanted comments!
