My new doctor wants me to take cipro for 2 weeks minimum for pouchitis . In the past have only taken it for 10 days. Is 2 weeks normal? Appreciate any input. Have had my pouch for over 20 years with good results. Unfortunately I have had several bouts of pouchitis recently and worry that the pouch and rectum are just wearing out. Issues of incontinuance and cramps complicate life . Once off the antibiotics this time will try the new diet of low sugar and carbs. Need to try something different.
Does anyone know of a good gi doctor in Fort Worth or Dallas. A lot of doctors seem to have very little experience with j pouches.
Thanks
Mary
