Hello,
I'm new to this site and looking for some feedback. My pouch is 8 years old and I've just had my first bout of pouchitis. I've been on cipro (500mg) for a week and feel better, meaning bowel function is back to "normal". However I still have the achey, nagging feeling of illness still in my body. I wonder if this might go away on its own or if I should seek another course (stronger?) of cipro to get rid of it.
I know I've been fortunate to have years of good pouch function with no issues and this bout of pouchitis is a reminder that I can't take it for granted. For those of you who have had a healthy pouch long term, what are the things you do to keep it healthy?
Thanks for reading!
Shannon
