I had a pouch redo and it was handsewn with a mucousectomy.. Is it safe to say I could not ever get cuffitis? or is it still possible? I never asked

If pouch is hand seen they take out tectal cuff so I would say you should not get cuffitis.
Well, body parts that have been removed tend not to get diseases. OTOH, we all still have plenty of body parts left. I'd recommend enjoying them while they are working. There is a wonderful repeated line in the movie Bridge of Spies. An old spy keeps getting asked "aren't you worried about <the latest threat>?" His taciturn reply: "Would it help?"
According to Dr Shen, even though I had a handsewn mucousectomy with my pouch redo, I can still get inflammation there at the connection site. Similar to cuffitis, but not really a cuff there.
