So Ive been in the hospital for a week now of what seems to be pouchitis and an infection in my lymph nodes in the pelvic area. I had a scope, ultra sounds, and an MRE. The doctor just told me that the biopsies had granulomas in my pouch which are associated with crohns disease but he says that they can also just be associated with infection too and thats what he is hoping and they will see how I am feeling in a couple of weeks. I am feeling better on zosyn and rifaximin so I am hoping it is just pouchitis...any thoughts? I just feel so lost on what is going on and the doctors are trying to help me understand but it is pretty confusing for me and sometimes I think I am still not always taken seriously because I am in pediatrics. I think I built up a tolerance to cipro and flagyl doesn't work for me either.
