I am 7 weeks post take down. every thing seems to be working however I experience a lot of abdominal pain. When I had the stoma I never had paid. I have slowly introduced new foods do I don't think it is diet. I started taking Advil and Aleve and it tends to work. Any one have any thoughts what maybe causing the pain? Is this a symptom of pouchitus ?

Yeah I also think its normal to have abdominal pain. Just remember everything inside there has been readjusted so things are in places that they were never intended to be. I am 5 months post takedown and still have a significant amount of abdominal and rectum pain but realize that all comes with the territory. I do believe in pain medicine if used correctly because less of a chance of stomach ulcers but if abused more of a chance of liver problems. I would definitely bring it to your Drs attention especially if it worsens over time.
