I was recently diagnosed with pouchitis for the first time. Reversal was on 9/18/19. I was on cipro for 2wks and within two days had normal stool, no burn, sleeping good at night etc. I just finished last Friday and I have major burn, some urgency, not normal, but not loose stool, getting up multiple times at night... wondering if it’s not completely gone???

Sounds like it’s not completely gone. Give your doctor a call. In addition to Cipro, now might be a great time to start on a strong Probiotic, such as Visbiome or VSL #3 DS. The prescription strength is sometimes covered by insurance, and unfortunately it is pricey. VSL  kept me off antibiotics for a year or so, and I find it still helps.
