Reply to "New to j pouch life- what does pouchitis feel like?/"

Hey Marymomof.

I little bit off topic but I want to get this message out. After your reattachment the Dr is going to ask (while in the hospital) if you are passing gas. Make sure that you are consistently doing this and it wasn't just one time it happened and not consistent.

I made this mistake after my reattachment and it was extremely painful for a month afterward because my guts did not wake up properly. Make sure that you have some consistent movement in your guts because if you don't, the build up of gas and pain is pretty awful. Not trying to scare you, just letting you know that things need to get moving properly.

Best of luck!
