I've had pouchitis off and on for the past year and I think, after the last round of meds, it's gone for now. Something I've started to experience with or without it is trouble getting deep breaths. Has anyone experienced something similar? It doesn't feel like a lung condition, but it feels like something down in the gut... like a really full stomach and maybe like it's pushing against parts, pushing against other parts. I've always been able to tap into those deep breaths in the past and something is off since the appearance of pouchitis earlier this year.
