"This zine looks at hidden, misinterpreted and misunderstood illnesses. Often these conditions can leave people feeling lonely and isolated. Dealing with these feelings can make a sufferer of whatever illness feel like they are the only one going through this, while everyone else is living their best lives. We want the zine to help people understand that even if your illness limits what you are able to do for months/years/lifetimes you are still valid. Your own scale of what is an achievement is all that matters. [...] Throughout this zine, we want to remind readers that cuts to NHS funding by the Tories put all of us at risk and directly reduce the quality of life people suffering from chronic illnesses. Our bodies should not be put in danger and free access to healthcare is a human right. The NHS is a lifeline for so many people, and cutting this is fatal. Save the NHS."--Page 3.

The team include dietitian Lucy Jones, GP Gio Miletto and consultant surgeon Shaw Somers. Over three months they will attempt to treat a number of condtions without prescribing a single drug. This time they help a 19-year-old dancer with Crohn's disease, an ex-soldier with a sleep disorder and a man with a low sperm count. An obese teenager is shown how to approach food following gastric bypass surgery. Pixie McKenna looks at the truth about whether or not sports drinks can really boost energy.

Dalziel's (Crohn's) disease : an historical review / John Francis Fielding.

"tract is an honest and shocking collection of narrative poems documenting the medical encounters that accompany diagnosis and prognosis, alongside the lived experience of chronic illness. This fiercely brave collection of prose poems presents past and future horrors through a series of memories that slip in and out of a dream realm. The collapsing philosophical, clinical, and personal registers expose the permanently fractured self and map the way the body attempts to negotiate the embodied and disembodied experience and realities of living with Crohns disease."--From publisher's website.
