Reply to "Constant urges with a pouch?"

It could be weaning off the hydrocodone, as that typically slows things down a bit. Pouchitis comes to mind, too, but if you saw your doc and she said everything is okay, I'm not sure. I would be extra vigilant about your fluid and electrolyte balances though; with your system being off and working in that kind of heat, it would be very easy for things to get thrown out of whack. I live in Austin, and I have to be extra careful from May through September when it's so hot here...I ended up in the ER last month with almost zero potassium and magnesium in my system and severely dehydrated, even though I was drinking water throughout the day. Now a water bottle is always at my side and I try to drink 100 oz each day. Hope you're feeling better soon!
