Reply to "Pouchitis? Gastroenteritis? Something else?"

It could certainly be pouchitis, as severe cases can mimic all sorts of things. I could have sworn I had an inflamed gallbladder based on my symptoms, but nope, pouchitis it was! But your chills and fever have me concerned, so be sure to stay on top of it and keep your doc informed. If the fever goes high or the chills become violent (like teeth chattering shakes) you need to go to the ER to rule out sepsis. You are doing the right thing by staying hydrated and resting.
