I am having my second bout of pouchitis in 1 year and have some questions. I have had my pouch for 14 years and no pouchitis until last year. On Thursday afternoon, I started Flagyl and Cipro and was amazed by the immediate response to slowing of frequency, urgency etc. The pharmacist warned me of diarrhea with both meds. Is that common? Stools have been formed since Friday until this afternoon when I emptied the pouch there was 1 round of former stool and then 1 of diarrhea. No urgency, pouch completely emptied so just wondering about the diarrhea. Oh and I am taking a probiotic 2 hours after my meds. Thanks in advance for your advice.
