Kevin-

Also, apart from the issue of whether your insurance company will require you to exhaust antibiotic therapy, I have not heard of some of the antibiotics you have been on, and it's not clear if you have ever been treated with levacquin or augmentin or xifaxin. My ex Cleveland Clinic-trained J pouch specialist is not so impressed with fecal transplants- he told me "it's nothing but a strong probiotic, and a very expensive one, and if other probiotics have not worked, it could be a colossal waste of time and money."
