My pouchoscomy was a failure. Inflammation level 3 after more than 10 years lots of problems found. Dr. recommends trying infusions of entyvio as a last ditch effort to save my jpouch. Has anyone had this offered as a treatment to stop the erosion taking place. Medications tried yep the whole list have not worked. Any sharing of your experience would be helpful

I think you trying Entyvio will be the best thing for you at this point. Entyvio is the number one biologic for Crohns and Ulcerative Colitis. I think that will be the best thing for you inflammation. If it does not work, at least you can say you tried

I’m sorry to hear what you’re going through.
I was on Entyvio and it worked great. Unfortunately it affected my liver so I had to stop. You should definitely give it a try if you feel comfortable taking it.
Good luck, hope it works well for you!
Thank you at this point after dealing with 10 years fo failure I'm hoping for a future. Did your liver rebound and did you go to another drug. Hope i can get anothe 20 years.

Yes my liver enzymes went back to normal after a few months. I did not go on another biologic, my doc decided on a steroid until I figure out if I want to try another treatment.
10 years on Entyvio. It worked great till it stopped working. I’m now trying Skyrisi. Good luck.
