Pouchitis-Flagyl-Misery!! Help!!

GrandonionMember

I had symptoms that were diagnosed as pouchitis a couple months ago. They were very effectively treated with a 10 day course of Cipro. 2-3 days after I stopped Cipro, symptoms returned, I had labs done and evidently I'm an excellent cultivar of C. Diff. I was immediately put on a 2 week course of Flagyl with moderate results. My last Flagyl was Tuesday bedtime and symptoms have come (literally) roaring back! Currently, my surgeon thinks reaction to the Flagyl is the culprit.
What sort of experience have any of you had with Flagyl causing the significant cramps, discomfort and roaring trots? How long after the last dose has it lasted?
I could use any and all experience, strength and hope!
Thanks!
