00:00I'm on the toilet in unbearable pain like I've literally never felt before.
00:04Oh my god. Put a little bit of spice on it.
00:10Oh my god. This might take the cake for New York.
00:12Little did he know, eating this burrito would start the chain reaction of his declining health.
00:17This is not good. I have extreme bubble guts at my boy's wedding.
00:23My whole body is shaking. I have been in the bathroom so many times today.
00:28And it only got worse from there.
00:30Sometimes my tummy is perfectly fine, but then I'll stand up and it'll boom!
00:34Horrible, horrible feeling in my gut.
00:36I like I need to go to the bathroom all the time. It's just like a boiling pot in my intestine.
00:41After getting his blood pressure taken, he was delivered some shocking news.
00:44I have to go get a colonoscopy and like an endonoscopy or whatever the f*** it's called.
00:48But that means they're going into my butt and into my mouth.
00:51Literally getting turned into a human f*** kebab.
00:54Over time, he felt worse, so some of his appointments got pushed forward.
00:58I called my doctor and let him know about my current situation.
01:01Pushed up my CT scan to right now. Luckily, I haven't eaten today.
01:04But will this scan finally give him the answers he's been looking for?
01:07I got told that my colon was extremely inflamed and it's pushing up against my appendix.
01:13My appendix is also inflamed. I also almost passed out.
01:16There is no bacterial infection in my poop.
01:19I are going to schedule up my colonoscopy and endoscopy ASAP.
01:23I can't eat food or drink water either. I'm going to be getting an IV. That's about all I know as of right now.
01:29We're at around 10 in an hour. All just water.
01:35As he waited for his colonoscopy, his body couldn't handle the pressure inside him.
01:39I was just like on the toilet in unbearable pain like I've literally never felt before.
01:45I couldn't even stand. My whole body had the shakes.
01:48Here I am about to be turned into a kebab. Hopefully we get some answers.
01:53I've also heard that I'm supposed to have the craziest nap after this.
01:57I'm supposed to fart like a demon.
01:59After weeks of unimaginable pain and discomfort, he finally got the answers to what was causing all this.
02:05My colonoscopy and endoscopy went well, but I do have ulcerative colitis.
02:10Given that information, I will probably be dealing with that for the rest of my life.
02:14Something in the last two weeks caused a flare-up like this.
02:17My entire GI tract is covered in ulcers.
02:22Anytime any food moves through those ulcers, it's like rubbing a canker sore in your mouth times a thousand.
02:30I have to go get some more testing.
02:31Sucks. Bad news. But it happens. I'm all good.
02:35As long as we know what it is. And there's definitely treatment nowadays. Modern medicine.
02:40I'm feeling a little bit better today, but that's just because of the fluids.
02:43Grimping is still there. It's pretty intense.
02:45With his answers, hopefully he can find ways to treat the illness so it doesn't significantly affect his everyday life.
02:52It feels like my body is not mine anymore and I'm losing a version of myself I fought to build very hard.
02:58Some days that hurts more than the UC itself. That does something to me mentally that sucks.
