In this short I share my worries when traveling and more specifically while flying. I always advise that Crohnies have their plan in place. Let your flight attendant know that you have IBD, are experiencing flare symptoms and might need to access the bathroom quickly.
I have never had a flight attendant not do everything they could to help me get safely to the restroom in a pinch.

Come along with me as I take on a HUGE physical challenge and talk through my why.
Having a disability doesn't have to define us. This vlog is a testament to that core belief system.
If you're new here, hello! My name is Barrett Laurie and I am a Crohnie. I was diagnosed with Crohn's disease in 2020 after years of suffering. I produce content around my disability and thriving in spite of what Crohn's throws at me.
If you enjoy chronic illness vlogs then I am the Crohn's disease vlogger for you!

Join me as I break down the cold hard facts around how common it is to develop a second autoimmune disease - the percentage was shocking and the fun name that comes with that second diagnosis.
So if you too are poly...roll call your autoimmune diseases in the comments!

To say I was shocked by the amount of weight I lost in one week is an understatement. I'm thrilled with the progress so far.
The meat of this week's vlog though isn't really about the weight loss, so much as it is about the feelings of self doubt that creeped up in me once I realized I was going to be weighing myself for the world to see. Reflecting on my past I quickly realized the last time I felt this level of self doubt was around the time of my diagnosis with Crohn's disease.
Back in the early days of my diagnosis I was susceptible to all sorts of medical misinformation because I was too new to know what I didn't know. On my most recent episode of Gut Instinct, my podcast all about living and thriving with a chronic illness, my dear friend @AuthorMorganLee talked about her journey with Crohn's disease. During that discussion Morgan shared a point in her Crohn's story, she stopped taking her meds due to a form of medical misinformation that stems from extreme religious beliefs. This discussion, along with my feelings of self doubt over my weigh ins inspired this video about how I combat self doubt while focusing on my 'why.'

Check out Morgan's Crohn's story on the latest episode of my podcast Gut Instinct where she breaks down her journey, the impact of her illness on her mental health, her religion and her life. She held nothing back and put it all out there. So whether you're new to the Crohn's/IBD fam, or an old guard warrior, we hope you will check out this discussion and share your insights in the comments.
With Chronic Illness it takes a village to get through the rough times.

If you're new here my Crohn's story began in 2020, when my life changed forever after properly diagnosed with Crohn's disease. I was unprepared for how my life would change and evolve. Back then I couldn't have possibly been ready for the myriad of different ways I would adjust my everyday life to accommodate living with a chronic illness.
From anal fistulas, to flaming diarrhea, to nausea, to extreme weight fluctuations, to malnourishment thanks to vitamin malabsorption, to blood in stool, inflammation, liver disease and everything in between this ride has been wild. A magical drug called Remicade, prescribed by my incredible GI Dr. Deepak, saved my life.
But the road to get the medicine I needed, at the dose and rate I needed it has been a never ending battle. Because health care in America sucks a big toe!
This podcast series will focus on Crohn's disease, but living with a disability more broadly. I will share my story, the ups and downs, as well as the impact of the people in my life through first hand interviews. I will also be inviting on other Crohnies to share their story with the disease and their road to remission. I will also invite on those living with a disability (whether in the IBD family or not) to talk about the unique challenges we face.
I hope you'll join me for these frank discussions about living and thriving with a chronic illness.

I have experienced a few side effects, which I will discuss in detail on my next long form vlog, as well as whether or not my doctor will allow me to continue with rapid!
Stay tuned!

We survived date nights, doggie bakeries, too many amazing restaurants to count and a tornado scare at the breathtaking Crystal Bridges Art Museum.
What a trip! As we settle back into life at home, it makes me grateful for my beautiful family. It's funny how the dream never looks exactly like we think it should, but that doesn't mean it isn't our happily ever after.
Be good to yourselves and one another.

This vlog is basically a mood. The moment that I decided, even though I hear the voices in my head telling me I need to work twice as hard as able bodied folk to get ahead, it ain't true. It's a lie.
So I reclaimed my power and my time this week. Come with me on that journey and join the conversation. Tell me about your experiences being overworked by someone who doesn't appreciate that effort? How did you react?
Hang in there Crohnies and I'll see you next week!

I had no idea how prevalent this was until it started happening to me. And sometimes from people we love and trust. The ignorance is astounding.
That's why I work everyday to push back on this little by little each day.
Has this happened to you? If so, share your experience below in the comments.

It's easy to forget those we love are in the trenches with us and I wanted to take a minute to have that discussion with him, hoping it might help someone else feel more secure opening up to their partner about chronic illness and the impact it has on the relationship.
Be gentle y'all. He's shy!
In 2020, my life changed forever when I was properly diagnosed with Crohn's disease. I was unprepared for how my life would change and evolve. Back then I couldn't have possibly been ready for the myriad of different ways I would adjust my everyday life to accommodate living with a chronic illness.
From anal fistulas, to flaming diarrhea, to nausea, to extreme weight fluctuations, to malnourishment thanks to vitamin malabsorption, to blood in stool, inflammation, liver disease and everything in between this ride has been wild. A magical drug called Remicade, prescribed by my incredible GI Dr. Deepak, saved my life.
But the road to get the medicine I needed, at the dose and rate I needed it has been a never ending battle. Because health care in America sucks a big toe!
This podcast series will focus on Crohn's disease, but living with a disability more broadly. I will share my story, the ups and downs, as well as the impact of the people in my life through first hand interviews. I will also be inviting on other Crohnies to share their story with the disease and their road to remission. I will also invite on those living with a disability (whether in the IBD family or not) to talk about the unique challenges we face.
I hope you'll join me for these frank discussions about living and thriving with a chronic illness.
#crohns #crohnsdisease #chronicillness
This can result in some incredibly insensitive things being said. Some of the worst a former horrible boss said to me are shared in this video. Don't be like this nepo baby gone wild and learn from his mistakes.

Being disabled isn't a walk in the park but it can be especially scary if you have an invisible disability. Mostly because we never know the terrain. Will we have people who ask rude and invasive questions? Or will self awareness and mutual respect win the day?
Getting to a place of acceptance has brought me peace. I'm grateful to have access to an accommodation plan and protections for my job should I have a flare.
Join me this week and every week on the rocky road of adulting with a disability.

The other theme that presented itself during the filming of this vlog was the realization that balancing disability and career is hard and stressful. I expect to be diving into this more and more as the year continues.
Living with a chronic illness means that everyday is impacted by my inflammatory bowel disease (ibd) diagnosis. This series follows me on my Crohn's journey, otherwise known as my life.

My name is Barrett Laurie and I'm a Crohnie. I have complex perianal Crohn's disease and manage my symptoms with a life saving drug called Remicade (infliximab) and azothiaprine (chemo pill) to keep my immune system from attacking itself!
Join me on my journey with balancing life, career, and Crohn's.

Watch Insane Preauthorization Fight Vlog: youtu.be/6xcUdNHkaOU?si=BRHFLsIK6RbbMabx
Fighting for care, acting as your own advocate is exhausting. In this vlog series I go deep into what that means and the cost emotionally and physically.
This blog follows my day going to the infusion center after a long wait. My Crohn's disease symptoms were out of control. Crohn's warriors understand the "urgency" issue I discuss in the video.

With my Crohn's symptoms out of control, I am counting the days until that Remicade infusion. With the worst of shingles behind me, I'm ready to get my Crohn's disease symptoms under control. IBD is not for the faint of heart.
Survived my first two weeks of class and managed to not let them see my nerves. We all know freshman can smell fear!

From anal fistulas, to flaming diarrhea, to nausea, to extreme weight fluctuations, to malnourishment thanks to vitamin malabsorption, to blood in stool, inflammation, liver disease and everything in between this ride has been wild. A magical drug called Remicade, prescribed by my incredible GI Dr. Deepak, saved my life.
But the road to get the medicine I needed, at the dose and rate I needed it has been a never ending battle. Because health care in America sucks a big toe!
This podcast series will focus on Crohn's disease, but living with a disability more broadly. I will share my story, the ups and downs, as well as the impact of the people in my life through first hand interviews. I will also be inviting on other Crohnies to share their story with the disease and their road to remission. I will also invite on those living with a disability (whether in the IBD family or not) to talk about the unique challenges we face.
I hope you'll join me for these frank discussions about living and thriving with a chronic illness.
Join me tomorrow for another Crohn's Vlog and then again Sunday for my NEW Podcast Gut Instinct - where the first episode is dedicated entirely to my Crohn's journey!
Thank you for liking and subscribing! It helps with the algos!

Check out yesterday's vlog for a full breakdown of my annual fight with my health insurance company for my Remicade (infliximab) infusions. I haven't won yet - so stay tuned to my weekly vlogs to see when I get the treatment I need.
Crohn's disease is bad enough without having to worry over access to treatment. If you're going through it with your insurance company hang in there!

Preauthorization is something insurance companies do at the beginning of every year to determine whether or not a treatment plan, like Remicade (infliximab) infusions in my case, or medical procedure is medically necessary.
It is an awful time of year for any person struggling with chronic illness, but one we can get through together. Buckle up for one of my "story time" talks dripping with sarcasm and my dark humor. Trust...if I didn't laugh I would cry.
Crohn's disease is something that I carry everywhere and therefore I wear it like a favorite coat. Be prepared for an unfiltered, unvarnished look at my life as a queer, disabled badass. If you're a crohnie...this vlog is for you.
Soundtrack - Epidemic Sound: "Dance the Night Away" Siine featuring Frank Moody
