Crohn's and Colitis
Dr Chetna Kang and Sophie Sulehria focus on Crohn's Disease and Ulcerative Colitis.
Crohn's Disease and Ulcerative Colitis are the two main forms of Inflamatrory Bowel Disease.
They affect 1 in 200 people in the UK and can be embarassing, debilitating and even deadly.
There is no cure but there are treatments. this week Sophie and Chetna meet a woman from Milton Keynes who had to have most of her small intestine removed but went on to have two children.
Plus they'll hear from the Hertfordshire man who didn't eat for two years because of his Crohn's Disease.
