Colitis

Personally, it doesn't sound like inflammatory bowel disease, but there's still a chance it could be Crohn's disease. Crohn's disease can occur anywhere from your mouth to your anus. So if it was in your small intestines, a colonoscopy wouldn't necessarily show it. source

My pains vary actually from cramping, severe enough at times to feel like labor pains, to stabbing and sometimes even a burning pain. Crohns can also cause constipation not just diarrhea although diarrhea is more likely to happen than becoming constipated. source

I'd say if it coninues think about going to a doc, just to make sure everything is alright. With your LLMD on vacation maybe there is another doc that you can make a quick appointment with. source

My GI had me try Pantessa which I think is a generic version of Asecol just for the hell of it to see if it had any effects but it didn't. This was before doing a colonoscopy and rulling out Crohns. source

So about three and a half months ago I had shoulder surgery done to correct instability in my right shoulder. About one month ago I had symptoms associated with Inflammatory Bowel Disease and Crohn's Disease. These both I know are disqualifying as they are chronic problems. However the problem has completely gone away now and I think the cause of the symptoms were from the antibiotics that I took for my shoulder. My gastroenterologist agreed that the antibiotics were a possibility. So, since I know the cause of the symptoms and pretty much am fully capable of preventing another episode, is this still considered chronic and disqualifying? source
