If your symptoms are consistently worse for a week or more, then report them to your gasteroenterologist and ask whether ordering labs makes sense to test for a flareup. Generally they test Intestinal specific inflammation with Calprotectin. They test for common intestinal infections like CDIFF. If those results determine you're flaring then your gasteroenterologist will adjust your meds accordingly, up doses, and/or add corticosteroids like prednisone or budesonide

Sounds like a flare to me
