Constipation a symptom?

[Ice cream]

Could constipation, distention, bloat and severe has be symptoms of IBD? Dr recommended a colonoscopy and endoscopy to check it out. I've been in the specific carbohydrate diet to heal my gut for quite a while now and no luck. So that's my next step now.
Is it possible?

It sure is

Yes - most of us go through periods of both D and constipation.

You should definitely go through with your recommended scopes. They will tell your doctor what is going on with you.

Take care!

DS's main symptom was constipation- sure shocked the gi and us after the scope when they found signs of crohns'

Yes, I have Crohns and have been going thru constipated periods. Just a suggestion, drink more water. That helps these periods to be less stressful. My best to you.
