Reply to "Brother just dx'd with Crohn's"

I tend to agree -  Crohn's and UC are flipsides of the same coin; IBD is IBD and many of the treatments and symptoms overlap. Mine just happened to be treated by obliterating the colon. Heh.

Interestingly my father has, and is a carrier of, hemochromatosis. Given that I have  IBD my iron has always been low. So I may have lucked out of the hem lottery in the weirdest way.

Sorry to hear about your thyroid cancer, I've been here only sporadically the last couple of years. I didn't know.  Hope you are doing well!

That said, I don't have my wisdom teeth, so there you go.
