Reply to "UNC Chapel Hill Pouchitis"

Dr Barnes at UNC put me on Augmentin which only seemed to dry me out extensively. I said no to Rifaximin because of the cost and I had read other reviews from this group that it wasn’t very effective. I’m on Vancomycin now which I thought was working but it only helped a very tiny bit. Like you I also have inflammation in the small intestine. Both my doctor at home and at UNC don’t think I have Crohn’s. I’m waiting to hear back from Dr Barnes for the next step which I believe will be either Prednisone or Stelara.   Please Let me know how you do with the Stelara!!! I hope that all goes great for you!
