Reply to "SBO - First One"

I agree with Scott. Until this becomes a chronic problem, there is no way to predict whether it will become one. Also, there is probably nothing you did or didn't do to contribute to this. Just one of those things. If studies could find no evidence of obstruction, my guess is that this is temporary or something else.

Last year I could swear that I yad obstructive symptoms or gallbladder attacks. Investigations were negative. Turns out it was all pouchitis and maybe small intestine bacterial overgrowth (sibo). Antibiotics fully resolved it. But, I became antibiotic dependant and wound up on Remicade for the chronic pouchitis. Will this happen to you? I have no idea. Each case is different and what is true for one person is not necessarily true for anyone else.

The good news is that your doctor wants to get to the bottom of this. Good luck!
