Pouchitis and lactose intolerance

Has anyone seen a correlation between lactose intolerance and pouchitis?  As in, if lactose is sugar, and sugar helps bacteria grow, does your body's lack of ability to break down the sugar cause problems?  I am lactose intolerant, but take Lactaid pills, however I still get some gas from it.  I wonder if lactose intolerant people are more prone to pouchitis even if they take Lactaid.
