You volunteer for a doctor’s office developing infographic handouts for patients. After a recent episode of “Celebrity Diagnosis Face Off” a number of patients have come into the office convinced they have celiac disease. Others believe they have irritable bowel syndrome. The doctor and nursing staff have become so frustrated that they asked you to develop an infographic for patients focused on the two diseases.
Be sure to focus on digestive, excretory and integumentary symptoms of each as well as how they are diagnosed.
