Hey guys, long time lurker, infrequent poster here. Have had a j-pouch since 2011.
I had a course of rifaximin 4 weeks ago for SIBO and a few days in I began to have really watery stools (unusual for me). I finished the course and thought it might clear up, but it hasn't and on top of it for the past 2 weeks I've been feeling really nauseated after eating with cramps pain. Overnight I'm having unpleasant leakage issues :/ I've only vomited once and for the most part I am controlling the nausea with maxalon and by not eating. Trying my best to keep hydrated with gastrolyte. No luck using gastrostop to clam down the diarrhoea. When I do eat it feels like the food is sitting in my stomach for a long time, if I eat a small amount at night I wake up still feeling full. I had a c diff test with the GP and it was negative. I've also had a bunch of tests this year, showed some minor pouchitis which was treated and was then diagnosed with neurogenetic pain from all of the surgeries.
Any ideas about my current predicament? My specialist is away on holidays and I'm getting frustrated about not knowing what to do
