Severe Diarrhea & Gas

Ever since my takedown to a J-Pouch, I have had severe gas that is only getting worse. Due to our plumbing/physics I have to get down on my knees/tummy to release gas. At its worst, I can release gas over 200 (seriously) times within a 30-40 minute window. It has gotten so bad that I don't know what to do. I have been treated for pouchitis, sibo, eat low sugar/low carb. I have tried eliminating dairy, gluten, etc. I also am having SEVERE Diarrhea, peanut butter tears me up, bananas give me gas. I need help getting the gas/diarrhea under control. I am taking a lot of Immodium with no results. Im starting to think the gas is coming from a Chron's flare. Does anyone else have increased gas during a flare? Pretzels used to help me with bulking things up however now they seem ineffective. I am definitely suffering from short bowel syndrome however it has not been this bad, at least not in a long time.
