Hey folks haven't been on in a while...I have had my j pouch for 18 years and have had a lot of scar adhesion surgeries and problems with blockages.  That isn't my problem now.  Lately my bowels are constantly gurgling and moving very loudly.  Lower abdomen mostly.  Also I have sooooo much gas!  I have never had this problem before.   And I have been having to go to the bathroom more at night.  I guess I shouldn't complain because at least my bowels aren't blocked and I'm not in the hospital having surgery.  But it is extremely annoying and keeping me up at night.  I don't have pouchitus so that isn't it.  I have control of my bowels just have to go a lot more.  I have never taken Imodium or anything for gas.  If anyone has any advice please help!  This isn't just occasionally,  it is every day now!

GrannyJ64 - I joined the site today & came across your post when searching for people with similar issues to myself. I see that you posted this about a year or so ago & was wondering if you ever found the cause of your constant gurgling & if you were able to address it. I’d love to hear how you got on as my symptoms sound identical to yours. I hope things have improved for you.
