All my Dr's felt the same with me.
Some cases are hard to diagnose either or.
I suppose some are clear one way or another and I was told a j pouch would not work in my case. But I was also told it "may work". So I tried it. Nope. Didn't work.
But I had to try. Probably would have regretted not trying. But now with my end ileo I know I tried and I'm good with the outcome. Not with the process that got me here but I'm good now.
And yes I second following Scott's advice.

Out of all the times you and I talked, I never knew you had Crohns! I am sorry to hear that but I am more than happy to hear that you are doing better
