When I had an ostomy I had anal discharge which was called diversional colitis I believe. It had a very particular appearance and odor. I am experiencing what seems to be that same discharge but from the pouch. I also had some leakage of it during the night and  I've  never had a problem with leakage/seepage before. Any thoughts or ideas?

It just started yesterday. I will try to speak with my gastroenterologist. For the most part the stool seems normal and no abdominal discomfort etc.  I haven't noticed that discharge in the toilet but did have it as leakage during the night. I have an r/v fistula and that's where I really notice it.

Could possibly be pouchitis; that fistula sounds very suspect, I hope its not Crohns. What did the gastro say???
