Hi!
I've felt great over the last month or so on Augmentin (lots of diarrhea, though!) Sadly, back to weakness, very sore butt pain and issues as of a few days ago. I have an initial appointment with Dr. Remzi with an MRI and then Barium Enema the first day, and the second day with Dr. Remzi and Dr. Shen for a pouch procedure. We'll see how it goes!
However, question, the full day of not eating solids and the prep seem to be a bit of overkill for me since I don't have a colon. Is there a middle ground for those of us with pouches? So far my instructions are nothing but clear liquids the day before and then at 5:00 12 oz of Magnesium Citrate.
Of course, I want to be a shiny clean as possible and will do whatever necessary! Thanks.
