Touché.

My experience with the syndrome was that the patients were treated with steroids, but the diagnosis had been changed to colitis, one of the names formerly applied to IBS, by that time. Remicade and Humira were the drugs of choice.

However, I still disagree with your premise. According to NIH, one recommended treatment is with hyosine. Very interesting description. of course the
World English Dictionary defines inflammation as:

inflammation (??nfl?'me???n)

— n
1. the reaction of living tissue to injury or infection, characterized by heat, redness, swelling, and pain

hyoscine

alkaloid drug obtained from a number of plants of the family Solenaceae, including nightshade, henbane, and jimsonweed. Scopolamine is an effective remedy for motion sickness, probably because of its ability to depress the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord). Like atropine, it has a depressant action on parasympathetic nerves and in larger doses on autonomic ganglia. Scopolamine is also used to dry up secretions and dilate the bronchi during anesthesia and to dilate the pupil during ophthalmological procedures. The drug is the most pharmacologically active of several alkaloid substances found in belladonna, partly because of its greater solubility, which permits more rapid passage to the site of action
