Reply to "not sure what to do"

It's usually a good idea to follow one's gut (not one's brain) for choosing foods. So don't worry about the steak.

I do not follow a specific diet. I don't eat pork and only little red meat, so mainly chicken and sometimes fish in the non-vegetarian corner. I reduced alcohol during the last months. I never drank a lot, but now it's hardly any. And I try to have bread only for one meal per day, that's easy if I have an oatmeal with yoghurt and fruits in the morning.

But till now chronic pouchitis did not leave me, so it's good to have Cipro & Flagyl at hand if things get worse.

If you had only short episodes of pouchitis in the past years, you should try to get rid of it as soon as possible so it doesn't get chronic. Perhaps your doctor wants to do some tests (blood levels, stool).
