Re: Blood…already

Hello again. I’m 11 days post-takedown and I just had a bowel movement that was basically just blood (kinda like my last few days with UC before I had my colon removed!). I have been having a lot of bowel movements each day since takedown (some of you may recall my post earlier this week about not being able to empty my pouch) so I can’t say for sure if I have gone more today than usual. No incontinence yet today. No pain.

If this keeps up, I’ll be calling my surgeon on Monday, but could this be something other than pouchitis? Or have really not even made it two weeks before getting pouchitis?

Blood isn’t usually a prominent feature of pouchitis. It’s worth a call to your surgeon if it persists, but it really is still early days, and plenty of adjustment will be going on for a while.

I never had blood with Pouchitis and would not consider it indicative of pouchitis.
