I'm in my mid 20s and was 18 when I was diagnosed with IBD. I was diagnosed with celiac when I was 15, and have had major GI problems since I was a toddler/preschooler.

Houston,
I'll be 27 on Tuesday and was diagnosed last week after years and years of GI symptoms (my mother always remembers how when I was in kindergarten, the school would call that I was sick and needed to go home, so she would come get me and I would get home, go to the bathroom, and suddenly feel better...so GI symptoms for pretty much my entire life).
