Reply to "Question for successful pouchers"

Do you still get butt burn? No


Do you still use cream each day daily? No, I haven't used creams at all for at least a year (almost two years since takedown)

 

Are the toilet trips lengthy? (Amount of time spent in the toilet) It still takes me longer to empty completely than to urinate, but no, definitely not lengthy.

 

Are you able to eat all foods? Spinach and leafy greens -- cooked or uncooked, it matters not -- give me increased frequency. I choose to avoid these foods most of the time because I'm very busy day to day and would rather not deal with the consequences.

 

Do you have bad days and if so is it just increased visits to the throne or is there pain /urgency also? If I eat greens, I have increased frequency. If I overeat a lot -- I'm talking about like Thanksgiving level -- I will have more trips and sometimes have pain, though I don't think that's very different from someone who has a colon.
