As there are at the type of writing zero posts in this community I thought I might as well get the ball rolling.

I was diagnosed with UC around 10 years ago and, after my initial flare it was pretty mild. Around a year and a half ago I flared and suffered for most of that time, with the drugs I was being prescribed not really helping. Since the beginning of this year I’ve been on new meds and they finally seem to be working and I’m finally able to live more normally again.

In my spare time I’ve been working on building an iOS app that will allow IBD / IBS sufferers to keep track of their symptoms. I know there are apps that do that already but I’m hoping my app will simplify things and allow people to provide their doctors with graphs that show trends for symptoms over a period of time.

It’s a way off yet as I don’t have huge amounts of time to devote to it but I’ll get it built eventually.

Anybody else who wants to introduce themselves?
