What you described suggests inflammatory bowel disorder, Crohn being one. You may need a colonoscopy and biopsy to settle the issue. Wish you good health!

I agree that inflammatory bowel disease is quite likely here as simple.irritable colon doesn't usually awaken a person with intestinal tract symptoms. I assume you've had a stool culture to rule out colitis caused by enteric pathogens.
