As you undergo procedures and
labs, keep records of them including results from each. If pictures
are taken at an endoscopy, ask for a copy. If you have a blood test,
get a printout of your results.
These hard copies, along with details
recorded in your
procedures and labs record (pdf), will give your
adult physician an excellent idea of the patterns or history of your IBD. Use the form to improve upon
past experiences; if you have a particularly bad or good experience
one time, try to figure out why, so you can change or repeat that
factor the next time you have the same procedure.
 Use the
procedures and labs record
form (pdf) to record this information so you can
share it with your doctor. Be sure to note the type of procedure, date, location, reason for
it and the results. Include any sedatives prescribed as well as their effects.
