New to this forum. Total colectomy 10 years ago with no issues ever - not even pouchitis that I know of. Went on Ketogenic diet in January and lost a bunch of weight and then decided to try gluten free (wondering if original UC might be a gluten allergy that activated my immune system). Since starting the new diets in January been dealing with very loose stools, more frequency and leakage at night. The loose stools and increased frequency are nothing new. That happens from time to time. But the leakage is definitely new. That NEVER happened before. Both the keto diet and gluten free necessitate no bread or pasta. Wondering if this is the reason for the loose stool/leakage problem. Reintroducing them today to see if they make a difference but wondering if anyone else has a thought on this. Is my thinking on the right track? Thanks in advance.
P.S. By the way been eating oatmeal in the mornings and bananas and cheese to bulk up the stool especially at night. Has helped with the leaking but that's starting to hurt my stomach
