how long

How long do you wait to start meds for pouchitis? I just got off a round of 30day antibodics, a week ago. And now everyother day, I feel like I have pouchitis again. Should I just go ahead and start another round, or could it be something else?

If you feel fine when on antibiotics, and you feel like you have pouchitis shortly after stopping them, then you probably have pouchitis again/still. Hopefully a more aggressive round of antibiotics can get it to go (and stay) away. There's no reason to wait, unless your doctor thinks a test for C diff is advisable. Some of us have to stay on antibiotics all the time, but it's premature to assume that's your situation.
