I was diagnosed with UC in 2008. For 11 years I had never achieved symptomatic or clinical remission, and I was having 15-20 bloody, very urgent bowel movements a day with a calprotectin over 1000. Within 6 months of joining Systema, I was symptom-free for the first time in the 12 years I’ve had UC. I was able to get pregnant and have a healthy pregnancy and delivery of a beautiful baby boy! This would not have been possible without me going through Systema’s process.
