Since my J-Pouch in 1997 it has been a Livable condition for a short time and then Diarrhea and Green burning stool until all is expelled (sometimes 10 times in an afternoon) Then just as quickly I am back to something livable for a few days. The good times are getting shorter all the time. Try as I might I cannot identify the food that causes me to go thru that terrible time. I am on Remicade every 8 weeks. The Doc tells me my pouch looks good and lets it go at that. Sometimes I call in a 6 day round of Prednizone and that helps for a while. My question for anybody that may have experienced similar problems: What if anything can be done to avoid all of that retching that is coming more and more frequently? Would it be some kind of a Gastric problem? My Doc is a Surgeon and might not be familiar with this particular problem.
