Not much detail sorry, I'm 17. SO ALL summer I had freuquent undigested bowel movements abdominal pain,loss of hunger and appetite with yellow diarrhea. And now I have have diarrhea with mucus and loose stool cramping in my middle stomach and my bladder. I'd get cold sweats , chills hot flashes.I been to hospital cause of abdominal pain and intestines was checked by xray they said I was backed up all way up. They put me on miralax and it never worked. Few weeks later back hospital abdominal pain xrays show in backed up so they gave me an enema and what came out was pale yellow stool and red chunks.
 
Have you had the blood tests for celiac? It sounds like you need a colonoscopy which with observation and biopsy can help differentiate and determine your condition.
 
Why do you think IBD and coeliac are possible diagnoses? Have you been referred to a gastroenterologist? That is usually the best place to start and see what tests they recommend.
 
Sorry for not replying for month but didn't get the
colonoscopy or blood work yet but. In past I had anemia, low blood calcium. And now I noticed a large belly that bloats down to my lower abs and its weird cause I'm 5'7 110. I am naturally thin. But when I eat gluten or wheat foods I seems to bloat up get irritated, have cramping, nausea, and basically brain frog. So should I ask the GI about a celiac test.?
