Short Bowel Syndrome is a complex disease that occurs due to the physical loss or the loss of function of a portion of the small and/or large intestine (more than 50)
Symptoms include chronic diarrhea (or high output ostomy), dehydration, cramping, bloating and heartburn, anal disorder.
Malnutrition is a common issue when a person is unable to absorb adequate water, vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients from food.

People who have the disease can lead active lives.
Over time, the body can adjust by having a shorter l intestine, you may be able to take fewer medicines to manage the symptoms
The key is to stick to your treatment and diet plan addition to the support you need.
