Severe joint pains

2017-10-17 14:44:36
I am a female. Swelling as well as joint pains. Visited general physician. Found Hb to be low. Anemic. Doctor suggested this to be due to nutritional factors. Visited a rheumatologist who suggested many tests for arthritis. They were negative. Now the doctor has asked to do a colonoscopy to rule out IBD. Traces of blood in stool some months back. Should we go ahead with colonoscopy?
