chronic pouchitis - what does scope look like?

Question for people with chronic pouchitis...what do your scopes look like? I had my second pouchoscopy (flex sig) done yesterday...2 1/2 years after my last one. The doc said my pouch looks great! No visual signs of pouchitis. I saw my pics and tissue looks nice and smooth. What's odd is that although I don't feel I'm in a pouchitis flair...I'm still very dependent on the antibiotics and they don't work nearly as well as they used to. I thought for sure I would have lots of inflammation. I know the biopsies may indicate there is mild pouchitis so we'll wait and see. Gotta say I was thrilled with my report, but very surprised. Very comforting to know that I am keeping the pouchitis under control and it's not destroying my pouch. The doc said to keep up with my normal antibiotic regimen.
