CD presents with varied clinical symptoms and many patients in fact, may be
asymptomatic and have a silent form of the disease.  In addition, the
classical presentation of the disease is rare in adults.  Because of these
factors many internists and even gastroenterologists may not have enormous
experiences dealing with such cases.
 
However, if you go to a gastroenterologist and present to him/her the
possibility of CD in the differential it may help.
