Reply to "Advice on pouchoscopy results?"

Thanks DJB. I am just confused as to why the GI did not recommend antibiotics again and did not seem overly concerned about these results after meeting with him in recover. The way he wrote them up alarmed me. I have visions of my distal pouch are and cuff crumbling to the point of no return which will likely lead me down the road of a permanent ileo sooner that I thought. I am waiting for biopsies and to hear from my colorectal surgeon on his take on the results.
I may just start antibiotics myself but it seems that even with them, the distal pouch has been in the same shape since takedown although prior reports did not indicate anything as detailed as this report does.
