From the article: Traveling With IBD
There are plenty of reasons to travel: for work, for fun, to see family and friends. If you have IBD you may find that it's very difficult for you to travel, and that can take the pleasure out of it or keep you from leaving your house altogether. How do you plan when you do need to get out and about? Are there any special items you bring along with you to help? How do you deal with nervousness about being far from a bathroom? Share Your Tips
Motorhome Or Caravan Toilets
- I have a SOG toilet fitted to my motorhome. It has changed my life regarding my Crohn's disease and the odours related to having this condition. This unit has a suction fan that removes smells from the loo and takes them out through the cassette toilet door via a carbon filter. Eco-friendly too because it means you don't actually need any toilet chemicals. Mind you, emptying it is not for the faint-hearted, but then camping loos aren't for the faint-hearted anyway. FREEDOM and no nasty smells in my van. :) Bless all of you who live with IBD. :)

Get Out And Do It
- If you are flying, get an end seat! Also, remember that fast food restaurants don't ask if you are a customer so scout them out for quick bathroom runs. Carry your own TP, wipes, and anything else you need. Most important . . . do as much as you can do and don't feel guilty if you can't.
