What is your favorite web comic? I know xkcd has a link to your site, where do you frequent/ suggest frequenting?

Awesome! Guess I need to pay better attention! My Friday has been made significantly better now, your comic is my favorite favorite.

Agreed, it is really difficult to help somebody (who doesn't have one) understand what having an inflammatory disease is like.

I was also diagnosed, shortly before turning 17. I had to have my abscess as well as the surrounding 50 cm of my ileum removed due to the scar tissue. I haven't had any issues really since (nearly 7 years later). I was on Remicade, switched to Humira.

I really feel lucky that mine has been so easy to maintain, but I feel for you! Having an abscess was the worst period of time in my life so far.
