Can you give me advice needed for suspected ibd/campylobacter?

Different: campylobacter is a bacteria that can affect the intestines and cause gastroenteritis. IBD means Inflammatory bowel disease, and it is a different entity (it could be Crohn's disease or Ulcerative colitis). Campylobacter and IBD can be confused initially, but further testing will diagnose the correct one

Eval: Agree with earlier response. Advice is to have symptoms worked up.
