Reply to "Output consistency"

Lynn, it could also be one food you habitually eat that makes you watery. For me, red wine of any kind turns all my stools into a watery diarrhea. Shrimp also makes me run watery. Ditto with certain other foods I have taken in isolation. Foods that thicken me are applesauce, bananas, eggs, potatoes, peanut butter. If you have a pattern of wateriness that is unaccompanied by the other hallmark symptoms of pouchitis, diet is the chief suspect. Although only a pouchscopy can really rule out pouchitis. Your symptoms would be unusual with no frequency, urgency, or lack of continence or nighttime spotting. Try changing up your diet and see what happens. Try other fiber. I would also try Raisin Bran. I love Raisin Bran, it's my favorite cereal.
