New Normal with Probiotics

After 12 years with a J-pouch, I had my first bout of pouchitis. Went on Cipro and Flagyl and it cleared up.  Now, I am trying to adjust to a new normal with adding a daily probiotic.  I used to need grape juice to completely eliminate my pouch at the end of the day but find that post pouchitis and now with a daily probiotic, juice isn't needed.  Do others find that the daily probiotic helps with elimination? My transit time is back to my pre-pouchitis condition but the stool consistency is softer and less caustic. Do others experience these realities with probiotics?
