Hmm.. thanks for the link, and yes cytomegalovirus is what it is. I guess I know why nothing would help my pouchitis now.. as talked about earlier I was pretty ulcerated which is a side effect of CMV, so now I am wondering how long I've had it simmering, and if this has been the root cause of the problems I've been having for quite some time now, or if I still have underlying issues, and this is on top of them masking them at the moment...
