If a person suffers from inflammatory bowel disease, his or her symptoms
may manifest outside of the intestinal region. This includes eye problems,
gallstones, urologic disease, sink problem, or non-destructive inflammatory
arthritis.
The SSA states, rather coldly, that surgical diversion of any part of the
intestinal tract, including ileostomy and colostomy, "does not preclude
gainful activate if you are able to maintain adequate nutrition and function
of the stoma." If not, they will evaluate your condition under 5.08
(which relates to weight loss or a person's BMI over a given time).
