Hello

not sure what is going on with me. For the last couple of weeks I’ve been dealing with bowel leakage all day and every night! I was thinking pouchitis but I don’t have urgency pain or discomfort that comes with pouchitis! I’m taking lomotil metamucil and nothing is helping! I’m afraid to go out! I watch what I eat and its very little! I have no idea what is going on. Sometimes I don’t even feel it! Has this happened with anyone? Any idea why this is happening? I hope my pouch isn’t just failing because going back to a bag would be devastating for me! I got the pouch in 2018

I have leakage at night occasionally-like a few times a year.  It is usually accompanied by a bloated belly for a couple days beforehand.  I take a bunch of probiotics the next couple days and it seems to go away.  Sometimes I'll take a short course of oregano oil as well if there is also fatigue paired with it.  It is usually a small amount of clear liquid that is smelly and it wakes me up because of the sudden warm feeling, but it doesn't feel like I'm pooping. It feels like nothing.
