Reply to "How often are you meant to have a pouchoscopy?"

Mine started off annually. Then as things were progressing with no issue, my surgeon said we could push it out to 2 years.

(Cue ER visit, fistula and probably Crohn's diagnosis, and I'm now waiting on my second scope in as many months!)

My thinking has always been better safe than sorry. And I'm happy to get it checked regularly. I went through a lot to get this lovely functioning pouch, and I want it to stay that way.
