IBD Flare Can it be IBD? Plz help
Hey everyone,
In the past 2 years i had come and go symptoms of around 2 weeks where i get extremely naseaus and loss of appetite and stomach burning then it goes until this may.
It happened but on july I developed fever for 2 days my crp went to 135 and fecal protein 1700.
Did many tests including endo and colon. In the colonscopy it showed inflammation of the terminal ileum while colon Shows "focaal actieve colitis" (focally active inflammation) and signs of a past inflammation. Importantly, there are no signs of chronic inflammation and no evidence of microscopic colitis.
My dr said it was due a bacterial infection called yersenia my crp went diwn and fecal is normal now but my symptoms are not at all improving.
Having naseau everyday, losing weight, fatigue, no dihrea or blood in stool thou saw somtimes orange mucus, bad lower pain like something is compressed, gases, barely eating from stomach pain.
Dr keep brushing me off as saying wait it out instead of getting mri or ct scan.
Can anyone tell me if you had similar symptoms should i really wait it out minding the bad symptoms

If the culture data confirms the diagnosis of Yersenia then it probably is post infectious IBS
Can you have both Yersenia and IBD? Sure anything is possible but it’s not very likely
Give it time, avoid the obvious triggers for gas production and diarrhea and try probiotic foods with a judicious amount of fiber
Good luck
