Reply to "New medicine for pouchitis"

Thanks for the advice.  The doc just put me on Lomotil today.  My brother-in-law, who is a surgeon, suggested Metamucil. I took some last night, and it worked like a miracle cure.  Not so much tonight so I tried it again along with 2 Lomotil.  It's still a work in progress. I really do not want an ileostomy, but the GI doc assures me that with carefully selected patients it works great, and gives people a new lease on life.   My brother-in-law disagrees.  As I said, a continuing saga.  I forgot, I have taken Cipro and Flagyl in the past with some moderate relief.  Not as much lately as in the past.
