Chanel's Story: Living 23 Years with Ulcerative Colitis

A brief update on my current journey to repairing my anal fistula as we await more information on the clinical trials. In the meantime, I am planning on using my channel to share my experiences having lived with Ulcerative Colitis for the past 23 years. This video summarizes my whole journey, but I plan to film more in depth videos regarding pregnancy & IBD, the medications I have taken, pediatric UC, & more.
