Inflammatory bowel: From your description, this pretty clearly is inflammatory bowel disease, most likely Crohn's disease or perhaps ulcerative colitis. The doctor(s) providing her care undoubtedly have recommendations about it and planned or suggested treatment. This forum cannot give specific recommendations except to follow the doctors' advice.
