First of all sorry for the loss. I recently lost my favorite hypo male. it sucks!
Secondly, CBC levels will not give conclusive evidence for IBD. It has to be from a liver biopsy. There is also, as I understand it, a time limit for this test. Not too sure on this though.
Regarding IBD: To me, some of those symptoms seem IBD'ish, but you can't be sure without testing the organs of the snake. If you have other Boids it may be a good idea (perhaps just for peace of mind).

Again, sorry.
Boog
