Have you had a yearly scope test since you’ve had the jpouch? I think I may have had one done over the last 10 years. I don’t think it was to check out my pouch though, I believe it was for a stomach issue.

Changing your entire digestive system I feel is something that needs to be checked often, since cancer and other issues can arise in the pouch.  I’ve had a scope test every year for the past 40yrs, sometime twice in a year.
Thank god, I’ve never had cancer, but have had a bad case of pouchitis.
