The key is E. Seronegative arthritis. [Chronic diarrhea, mouth ulcers and skin tags are features of IBD. There is a well known association between IBD and seronegative arthritis (particularly AS). Here low back pain, visual problem, morning stiffness, raised ESR and CRP, low hemoglobin indicates the diagnosis of Seronegative arthritis].
