Incomplete emptying is pretty unpleasant. It was worth a try to soften up your stool, and I’m sorry it didn’t help. There are things that a CT scan can’t identify. Strictures are a common cause, and pretty easy to see on pouchoscopy. It sounds like you haven’t had a recent pouchoscopy yet? Another possible cause of incomplete emptying is pouch prolapse. You don’t report some of the common sensations associated with prolapse, but it’s still possible. If your pouchoscopy comes back normal then a test called a defecogram can be done to explore the possibility of prolapse. Good luck!
