Liz-

I take it that fresh fruits and vegetables were no problem for you before J pouch surgery? I am curious as to what would have happened surgically that caused this dietary intolerance. I personally have no problem eating leafy green vegetables except they do sometimes come out partially digested if I don't chew them well.

When were you last scoped and what did your scope show?

Yes, prior to my surgery and prior to my UC diagnosis, fruits and veggies were no problem at all. I had my take down in 2010, I believe, and for the first 5 years I didn’t have a problem eating leafy greens, veggies or fruit. But now, it’s a no go. I actually have not had a scope or even seen a GI since my last follow up after my take down. But, since I have come to this site and a support page on Facebook, I’ve decided I need to see a GI.
