So the ct scan showed wall thickening of the pouch suggesting pouchitis,  but it doesn't feel like pouchitis no diarrhea, no urgency, no blood, no leakage. But i do feel my like my GI track slow down, i used to take lomotil 5mg 3x day, now im down to 2.5mg 2xday. And have about the same number of BM. What the heck is wrong with me

Was your pouch normal in size on the scan? I don't wish to sound alarming, but I am asking because bloating and a feeling of fullness in my lower throat were the signs I got with megapouch. (Pouch becomes distended because the bowel used to construct it loses muscle tone.)

I felt as though things were backed up to my tonsils – obviously that wasn't the case, but that's how it felt.

But megapouch is very rare, less than 1% incidence.
