So I really need to see a doctor because I'm having problems with my jpough after 20 years. For the last two years I have what I think is pouchitis. I have all of the symptoms Not sure because it comes and goes. I've always gone to the bathroom a lot but now it's getting really hard to hold it, Almost feels like a mini flare up of ulcerative colitis. I have to be near a bathroom, take tons of Imodium or not eat when I'm out in public. Plus I'm sore all of the time. At my last scope my doctor who's a colon/rectal surgeon said no to pouch it's but couldn't explain what I am experiencing other told me to find a gasto doctor. What I'm wondering is should I continue to see a colon rectal surgeon or should I see a gastrointerologist Due to the jpouch? My doctor left in Pittsburgh and I moved to a new area and am trying to find a good doctor.
