Needs colonoscopy: If you’ve had abdominal pain and other signs of IBS for at least 3 months, you may have it. Hx of Bloody diarrhea, weight losss, nocturnal diarrhea needs to be investigated for malignancy, celiac disease, IBD.. The researchers did find that 2.5 percent of IBS patients older than 35 had a disease called microscopic colitis, which req. different RX. In your case Colon may be indicated.
