Disparity between doctor's opinion/endoscopy and pathology report

Hey all,

 

Today is my half year jpouch anniversary. I had a pouchoscopy a few weeks ago. Doctor said that the pouch looks like it has very mild inflammation which would not account for my symptoms.

 

I am currently having 2-3 BM's nightly, with 10 or more during day. Leakage. Lots of gas. Headaches and nausea every so often.

 

Pathology report says severe chronic inflammation and active pouchitis. How can there be this discrepancy?

 

Surgeon said that pouchitis might happen but will be mild and easy to treat... here I am with what may be chronic pouchitis.
