Morgan Underwood was repeatedly misdiagnosed
When Morgan Underwood first started needing the toilet more than usual, she didn’t think anything of it.
“Mentally I was becoming more and more depressed as I felt socially isolated due to not enjoying my social life to the fullest,” Morgan added. “I couldn’t even look at myself in the mirror without crying. No clothes I had fit me. My legs weren’t strong enough to keep myself up straight or even walk a few steps I had lost all my muscle mass as well.“From being so active, physically able and independent to my mum being my full-time carer really affected me. Although my mum and dad did not mind as they would do absolutely anything for me, I felt like a burden to them.
“Don’t get me wrong, I had to fight for a diagnosis and it took a long period of time. It took me being critical to officially get a diagnosis of Crohn's.” She also had a double barrel ostomy, where the surgeon removes the problem areas in the bowel before bringing the two ends of the bowel to openings made in the wall of the belly.
“I feel as if it’s all a mental game – if you let it ruin your life and get in the way, then it will.
