I'm taking some time off from producing new episodes of About IBD. But I don't want to leave you without great Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis content for your ears. That's why I'm sharing another podcast with you, called PSC Mami. PSC stands for primary sclerosing cholangitis, and it's a liver condition that is related to IBD, and ulcerative colitis in particular.

The host of PSC Mami is Monika Aldarondo, who talks to parents about their perspective on life with IBD and PSC.

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) affects more than the digestive system. Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis can also affect the eyes, joints, and skin. Jordan Ditty was diagnosed with IBD as a child, though her diagnosis floated between Crohn's and ulcerative colitis and she had j-pouch surgery due to a colonic perforation. Recently, she had her j-pouch removed and a permanent ileostomy placed. Surgery gave her with a better quality of life but also a new diagnosis of a skin condition related to IBD, called pyoderma gangrenosum.
