So I went to the doctor today.
He had a look inside, and to my surprise the inflammation was just moderate in his words. I was ready to learn that my pouch was falling apart.
I pushed for diflucan but he would not prescribe it as he is a GI surgeon and not a dermatologist. He said I should go to a dermatologist myself and figure out if I even have a fungal infection because diflucan is for serious infection of the whole body... sigh.
He did however give me Xifaxin. In his opinion it too kills skin bacteria but what do you guys think?
He also said that my awful ass-scratching butt burn from hell might be from excessive skin-irritating ileal content due to pouchitis. It might go away during course of Xifaxin treatment. God do I hope he's right... I cannot stand it!
