Reply to "Pain everyday"

hi...BillV is right. And, remember the pouch sits on the right, next to bladder. If that is full and the pouch, it can cause pain.

I'd be sure to empty more often (both urine and KP). Especially after you eat.

Are you irrigating the pouch during interbation to be sure it's all the way empty?

Even mild pouchitis can cause pain.

Try a gastroenterologist if the surgeon is baffled.

Also, during my 30ies and 40ies I had to be on birth control pill due to extreme menses that caused so much pain in my pouch. I had uterine fibroids pushing against it. I had them removed.

Try not to worry, it doesn't have to mean it's some awful going on!

Best, Janice
