HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
Persons can have allergic symptoms in response to certain foods. Eggs are one of the more common source of allergies.
Prior to the removal of part of your colon, your allergic symptoms were mainly gastrointestinal ( cramping, diarrhoea, vomiting) but with removal of aspects of your intestine, you are presenting with different signs and symptoms of allergies.
I hope this helps
