Random question. Do you guys ever get cold or flu? I noticed I never get cold or flu I'm wondering if somehow there is a connection to my overactive immune system...

Before my diagnosis I rarely got a cold or flu. Got a few since but I'm also immunosuppressed now. I think with IBD our immune system is overreactive.

This past winter, since wearing a mask, I never got colds or the flu. Before the mask, I would get a couple of colds during the winter months.
