I had to chuckle at your description-I had the same test/drinks last fall-pretty accurate description Smiler

I would say definately give the ENtocort more time. I developed pouchitis a year ago last spring, and really deteriorated over 6 months until I was finally treated at May Clinic we started rotating antibiotics and Entocort with a 3 month ween plan (9mg for a month then 6, then 3, thn off. Once I got to 3mg/day my quality of life was in the toilet (pun intended). I went back on 6mg for several months, and then WAS able to successfully ween down to 3mg, where we are just holding (rotating antibiotics and 3mg entocort daily) for now. I definatly needed to be on the entocort for a longer than usual period of time to get inflamation down, since the inflamation had been reamping up for so long.

You've managed so well with chronic pouchitis, I hope to hear that you are able to continue with your pouch. Best of luck-
