Reply to "Pelvic Floor Therapy"

Poucho,

I still have my first pouch, but had the mucousectomy 1.5 years ago along with pouch advancement in a surgery where I expected he was going to redo the pouch, but didn’t think it was needed. Sphincter muscle also still appears to be fine. Will ask Pelvic Floor Disorder Dr. at appointment Monday if she thinks nerve damage is possibility. Sounds like your leakage not as bad as mine, but surgeon doesn’t think new pouch wouldn’t be any different, or any better because structurally mine is fine. Not feeling that way lately, even though I’m taking Xifaxin 3x a day. Gastro thought Xifaxin might help strengthen pouch and initially it did help.  He’s also willing to try Cipro as a regular med, with hopes it might help. Not sure about that one.
