Celebrating membership milestone for J Pouch support facebook group

Celebrating membership milestone for J Pouch support Facebook group

Amanda Nash does not give much away on her Facebook profile. She is a Senior Project Manager for a global software development company and lives in South Lincolnshire. But she has something very special which marks her out as “rare” and which identifies her as one of us. Amanda has an ileo-anal pouch which she has had for 29 years and for most of that time she has cracked on with life without any non-medical support. She is a member of the Red Lion Group and it was there she noticed references to the J Pouch Support (UK Specific) facebook group and decided to join up. As chance would have it, Amanda is the 1,500^th member of this small but perfectly formed group and offers us the chance to celebrate this membership milestone for this super-supportive group of pouchees.

Amanda writes that she has indeed been on a journey but considers herself very lucky and that she and her pouch have had many happy years together and continue to do so. She comments that blips are to be expected of course and when they do happen it is great to be a part of a supportive community of fellow pouchees who can help out with support and advice. Amanda is full of praise for the facebook group – “the support from the group is already wonderful and matches my current thoughts – I try to self-care when I can and only seek help when absolutely needed from the NHS – who have been amazing. I am a very grateful patient for them giving me my life back”. She adds that the group helps to keep her positive and strong, a fitting and lovely tribute to this special community. Amanda lives in South Lincolnshire, an area of the country where pouch surgery is no longer undertaken, with presumably a lack of surgical hands-on knowledge about long term, post operative pouch care. This makes the facebook group all the more valuable in providing hints and tips and providing reassurance that Amanda and pouchees everywhere that they are not alone.

About the J Pouch Support (UK Specific) Facebook Group

The J-pouch support (UK specific) group was founded some 10 years ago by two pouchees – Sam Wainwright and Sahara Fleetwood-Beresford. Sam is still a moderator and was joined some 7 years ago by Gary Bronziet and David Davies, who are respectively the Membership Secretary and Chairman of The Red Lion Group, a pouch support charity which is very closely affiliated to St Marks Hospital in London, where the operation was first conceived by Sir Alan Parks and Professor John Nicholls. With over 1,500 members, the group continues to grow at a pace and is now the largest pouch support Facebook group outside of the United States.

The name J Pouch Support (UK Specific) is just a little misleading as we have members with all pouch configurations (W-, S- and J-) and although the name implies membership is limited to UK-based pouchees, in practise the group has a truly global membership, not unlike the Red Lion Group. Not surprisingly, the most common location for members is the United Kingdom but we have members from all over the world including USA(54), Ireland (26), Italy (9), Australia (6), Canada (6), India (6), South Africa (5), Gibraltar (4) and Switzerland (4)

J Pouch Support (UK Specific) facebook group membership hits 1,500 in April 2024

Demographics and activity

There are twice as many women than men in the membership and the demographics show that two thirds of members are aged between 35 and 54. In the last 60 days, at time of writing, there had been more than 2 posts per day with 1,565 posts from 1,171 active members. This gives a phenomenal activity level of over 70%, reflecting the very high engagement amongst this close-knit group. The most popular days for posts are Tuesdays and Thursdays and the most popular times are 8am on Monday, Tuesday, Friday and Sunday and 7.30pm on Wednesday, Thursday and Saturday. Any correlation to the Coronation Street schedules is (probably) mere chance, but you never know!

The J Pouch

Pouch surgery involves the surgical re-plumbing of our bowels following life-saving surgery and which avoids the need for a permanent stoma and allows us to pooh via the bottom in the normal way. The outcomes of surgery are variable and hence the appeal of advice, guidance and support for pouchees and potential pouchees, particularly for members who live in the more remote areas where they might never have met another pouchee and where the medical professionals might not know much about pouches, let alone have the detailed experience and knowledge required to resolve common pouch issues. The group is hugely supportive and kind and very well informed from their own personal experiences. Every new member receives a personal welcome message which is tailored to their personal pouch circumstance.

In recent years Gary Bronziet has added an option to view the Facebook Group activity directly from the Red Lion Group website. See pouchsupport.org/forum. However, to post to the group, or respond to posts, it is necessary to submit a join request to the group. (It is not necessary to be a member of the Red Lion Group to join the Facebook Group (and vice versa!).

We look forward to many more years of growth and to many more years of pouchee support and advice via this very special group.

Welcome to Amanda and here’s to the next 1,500 members!

Best wishes

Red Lion Group chairman, David Davies, reports on our most recent online J-pouch forum

The latest RLG pouch forum took place on Monday 1 April at 7.30pm via the magic of zoom and with IT guru and RLG Membership Secretary Gary Bronziet pressing all the right buttons. RLG Chairman David Davies was in the Chair and welcomed 20 or so pouchees and potential pouchees who were joining from locations as far afield as Texas and New York to the West, Moldova to the East and Bolton from oop north. The great advantage of online meetings is that people can join from the comfort of their own homes without having to travel.

David emphasised that the meetings were completely confidential with no recordings and no minutes and are a “safe space” to discuss pouch-related matters in confidence. There is no prior agenda – the topics are proposed on the night.

A lively meeting ensued with people contributing to vibrant discussions on a wide variety of pouch-related topics.

Treatments for butt burn, how to reduce night-time frequency of bowel movements, what to do if your surgeon (who is not a pouch expert) recommends that your 30-year old pouch be disconnected.

The virtues of having the second and third operations conducted in one go (proposed by one attendee who was concerned about recovery times alongside work commitments).

We discussed potential correlations between having a pouch and getting pancreatitis (inflammation of the pancreas) [for information, there are no known correlations for the pouch per se, but if you have had UC then you are more likely to get pancreatitis apparently].

We also touched on the benefits of the FODMAB diet for encouraging good pouch function and the different types of pouch irrigation methods that are available to enable pouchees to fully empty.

One attendee is contemplating a pouch after having their large intestine removed and was greatly impressed by the support and the friendliness of the meeting and the amount of relevant and real-life information shared by the participants, which will help them with their decision. All in all, a very busy and informative evening!

The next RLG pouch forum will take place on Monday 6 May (also a bank holiday) starting at 7.30pm. Please save the date in your diaries and register beforehand below to receive the dial in details.

With thanks to all the attendees for your many and varied contributions.

From the archives – the launch of the Red Lion Group

We have decided to delve back into our ROAR! archives and share some of the articles with you – and in the year in which we celebrate the 30th anniversary of the Red Lion Group, what better place to start than ROAR! Issue #1 announcing the launch of the Red Lion Group on Sunday 10th April 1994.

Here is an excerpt from the article that featured in that issue.

The Launch of the Red Lion Group

This is the first newsletter of the Red Lion Group which is a support group for people who have a pouch or are considering having a pouch operation. The group was started by people who had their pouch operation at St. Mark’s Hospital, London but anyone is welcome to get involved. In this first article Tim Rogers recounts the launch of the group on Sunday 10 April 1994.

I went up to Aintree this year to see the Grand National. I lost about £20, but I didn’t mind because the following day Rachel Nicholson Abedi and I chaired the first ever meeting of the Red Lion Group. The group is largely made up of past patients of St. Mark’s Hospital in London who have made the transition from ileostomy to pouch.

A pouch is constructed by stitching the end of the small intestine in such a way as to give holding capacity, and plumbing it through to the anus. The operation is suitable for people who have suffered from ulcerative colitis and is a direct replacement for an ileostomy. While having an ileostomy takes some getting used to, it does allow people to be free from the chains of inflammatory bowel disease. Gone forever are the days of ill-health, urgency and planning your life around lavatories.

Patients undergoing a pouch operation lose the bag, but all the old fears about incontinence return. It was partly for this reason that we formed the Red Lion Group: to help people to decide whether a pouch is for them, and to give support to people who already have a pouch. A small band of us had been meeting once a month or so on a Thursday afternoon to plan the launch of the Red Lion Group.

When the big day arrived we did not know quite what to expect. Dansac kindly sponsored the event by laying on the venue in the beautiful grounds of Syon Park in southwest London and Mr. John Nicholls, one of the surgeons who pioneered the procedure, agreed to give a talk about the history of the pouch operation.

As Rachel and I sat nervously at the front of the conference room we counted that almost 100 people had turned up. Rachel stood up and spoke about the origins of the group which was the brainchild of her and the stoma-care nurse at St. Mark’s Hospital Celia Myers. Then I spoke briefly about the events that had led to this first full meeting before introducing Mr. Nicholls.

Mr. Nicholls’ talk was entertaining and informative. We were told that ulcerative colitis drives people to surgery in many ways. Some need it because the urgency ruins their lives. Others find that their health gets eaten away and they lack the energy and vitality to do things that everyone else takes for granted. By having an ileostomy people’s health is restored and they can go out and about safe in the knowledge that they are not suddenly going to have to go any moment.

People have a pouch operation for purely cosmetic reasons and so it is crucially important that people only undergo the procedure if they really want it. The operation is not suitable for sufferers of Crohn’s Disease. The operation has evolved over the years thanks to the genius of some gifted surgeons to arrive at today’s state-of-the-art ‘W’ pouch.

There was an animated question and answer session after Mr. Nicholls’ talk. The question of cancer-risk in pouch patients was raised. Mr. Nicholls said that although there had only ever been one case of instability of the pouch lining which could possibly lead to cancer he insists that each of his patients undergo a biopsy every year. Not all surgeons follow this example and this was perhaps the biggest talking point of the day.

The question of conception, pregnancy and birth came up. Mr. Nicholls recommended that women with pouches give birth by Caesarean section to minimise any damage to the bowel, but there is absolutely no reason why people with pouches should not have children. Indeed it turned out that there were three or four mothers with pouches at the meeting.

The problems of uveitis (an eye disorder) and arthritis linked to ulcerative colitis were also discussed. Some patients had been led to believe that a pouch would cure them of these disorders. Mr. Nicholls said that the link between ulcerative colitis and uveitis and arthritis were still obscure but progress was being made, as it was in the search for the origins of ulcerative colitis itself. He told one questioner that there was every chance that by the time her son grew up ulcerative colitis may possibly have been eradicated through genetic engineering.

Prof. John Nicholls to kick-off RLG 2024 webcast season

We are delighted to announce that we will be kicking off our webcast season for 2024 with a talk from Professor John Nicholls, considered to be the the father of the ileo anal pouch (J Pouch).

The Red Lion Group will be repeating its popular webcast series in 2024, providing an opportunity for J Pouch patients to see and hear from the foremost experts in the field of J-pouch surgery and the challenges of living with a J-pouch. As in previous years, each talk will be followed by an interactive Q&A so a chance to put your questions to the experts.

The first event this year will be on Tuesday 16th April at 7:30 pm (BST) and will feature the eminent colorectal surgeon Professor John Nicholls, who will need no introduction to many of you. Not only was he the co-inventor, with SIr Alan Parks, of the procedure for ileal-pouch anal anastomosis (IPAA), but he has been responsible for the creation of more pouches than anyone on the planet earning him the sobriquet “the pouch king“.

Professor John Nicholls is a retired British colorectal surgeon, Emeritus Consultant Surgeon at St Mark’s Hospital London and Professor of Colorectal Surgery at Imperial College London. He is also a Patron of the Red Lion Group.

The Red Lion Group webcasts are FREE and open to all, but pre-registration is required to receive the meeting link. You can register using the “Register now” button below.

Red Lion Group chairman, David Davies, reports on our most recent online J-pouch forum

The latest Red Lion Group (RLG) J pouch forum took place on Monday 5^th February and was chaired as usual by RLG Chairman David Davies, ably assisted by Gary Bronziet, RLG Membership Secretary. There were 20 attendees, a mixture of familiar regulars and a smattering of new pouchees and potential pouchees who were joining for the first time. The sessions take place via the online meetings platform Zoom, which means people attend from the comfort of their own home and from anywhere in the world. Indeed, on this occasion, we had two attendees dialling in all the way from the USA.

The sessions are informal and are not recorded or minuted – anything said in the zoom stays in the zoom. This helps to put people at their ease to share personal details of their pouch experiences and issues. It is a friendly and very supportive group and many of the attendees gain valuable insights and support as well as comfort to know that they are not alone.

The topics are suggested on the night and there is usually a smattering of common pouch themes. On this occasion it was a packed agenda with topics discussed including

Managing blockages
Tactics to prevent night-time toilet trips
Osteoporosis and pouches
Vitamin D deficiency in pouchees
Post-op recovery time before driving and lifting weights (presumably not at the same time!)
Tactics to thicken up pooh
Tactics to avoid leakage especially at night
All things wind
And finally, we had a potential pouchee on the call who asked the question – whether or not pouch surgery had been a good decision?

These topics generated lots and lots of comment and discussion as you can imagine – so much so that we ran out of time to discuss wind. So that topic will be number one on the list for next month’s meeting, along with other pressing pouch-related topics, I’m sure.

The next zoom pouch forum will take place on Monday 4^thMarch, starting at 7:30 pm. Attendance is open to all, but please register beforehand to receive the meeting link. You can find the registration link and details of other upcoming events at pouchsupport.org/events/ or tap on button below.

Diagnosis and treatment of pouchitis

Overview

This article describes the process for the diagnosis and treatment of pouchitis as recommended by St. Mark’s hospital, London – the UK National bowel hospital.

Symptoms

A small percentage of people with a j pouch will at some stage experience pouchitis. [The incidence of pouchitis is 20% at one year and up to 40% at 5 years. 10 to 15% of patients with pouchitis experience chronic pouchitis, which is classified as either ’treatment responsive’ or ’treatment refractory’. ¹]

Symptoms of pouchitis are not dissimilar to those experienced by patients whose original diagnosis was ulcerative colitis (UC). For example, abdominal pain, cramping, increased frequency, urgency and bleeding.

Diagnosis

Initial diagnosis is based on advanced history taking and assessment of symptoms. This is why it is important that patients speak to someone experienced in pouches, as otherwise they risk being misdiagnosed. Blood tests and pouchoscopy may be considered subject to the history taking and assessment findings.

Treatment

In most cases pouchitis responds well to antibiotics. [two weeks Ciprofloxacin and metronidazole are the most commonly used, often generating a rapid dramatic response. ¹] This may be followed up with further four weeks of antibiotics if not resolved or rapid relapse.

In the event that symptoms are not responsive to the antibiotics, investigations into alternative possible diagnosis would be carried out.

For the complete treatment algorithm, including the treatment of chronic pouchitis, refer to the St. Mark’s hospital Suggested Treatment Algorithm below.

Attend our regular monthly J-pouch forum on zoom

A quote from a first time attendee “…Thank you – I did enjoy the session.
I’d forgotten that in certain circles I am perfectly normal!“.

Updated 16 November 2023

The latest of the RLG zoom pouch forums took place on Monday 6th November. These popular and informal get togethers have been taking place since July 2020 and attract a regular crowd plus some returnees and a few new people. There is no agenda or script; the topics are decided on the night depending on whatever people want to discuss. The ambience is welcoming, relaxed and supportive and acknowledges the fact that pouchees are rare, we have been through a lot, and we share a common bond.

The November forum considered pouch-related issues as diverse as :-

frequency of pouchoscopy
treatments for pouchitis
what to say to medical professionals who are not familiar with the pouch
the benefits of the newer “biologics” medicines
natural cures for pouchitis.

There was an amusing explanation of “pebble dashing” for our American friends who are regular attendees (they understood immediately) and a regular slot from a gentleman who had his final take down operation some three months ago and is keeping us updated on his challenges as his body adapts to its new plumbing.

Finally, and perhaps most gratifying, there were two people considering pouches and who asked whether we would choose a pouch if we had our time again – which led to some excellent reflections on quality of life with a pouch.

These meetings are friendly and supportive and make for a relaxed hour or so with other pouchees to discuss serious and not so serious pouch-related topics – all from the comfort of your own home.

The next meeting is on Monday 4 December at 7:30 pm and pre-registration is essential (see link below) to receive the dial in detail. Hope to see you then!

“This being the last RLG zoom of the year, and being the festive season too, the attendees are encouraged to wear their xmas hats and jumpers etc. and have a suitable beverage on hand for a festive toast!”

Updated 7 December 2022

The last RLG pouch forum of 2022 took place on Monday 5 December with approximately 20 pouchees dialling in for an enthralling zoom session. These informal chat events have become a regular in people’s diaries and it was good to see so many familiar faces and a few new faces too. The discussions were wide-ranging and focussed on real pouch problems and their resolution. The topics included:

Vitamin B12 deficiency and a GP letter to get testing and treatment for pouchees
Access to the St Marks pouch nurse specialists for pouch-related advice
Symptoms and treatment for blockage
When you should go to hospital with a blockage
Prevention / reduction of gas
Food supplements and whether they work or not?
Probiotics for treatment of pouchitis?
Use of catheters and/ or warm water flushing for complete pouch emptying
How to reduce or stop having to get up in the night for a pooh
Foods to avoid for Christmas dinner!

There were lots of solutions, including one pouchee who had turned around a problematic pouch with a strict regime of pouch care, including a warm water enema to (further) liquidise the pouch contents in the morning and at night, using a medina catheter to fully empty, 2 sachets of Vivomixx per day (other probiotics are available) and green tea supplements (for their apparent anti-inflammatory properties). Not only is his pouch now healthy, but his doctor complimented him on having the healthiest looking pouch he had ever seen!!

Time ran out for the last topic of the day, which was how to avoid night time leakage and seepage, so we will discuss this at the next RLG zoom forum, which will take place on Monday 9 January 2023. Attendance is free, but please remember to register beforehand at pouchsupport.org/events to receive the link to join.

Wishing you all a Happy Christmas and a healthy and prosperous New Year, looking forward to meeting again on the 9th January.

David Davies
RLG Chairman

Our regular monthly pouch forums take place on the first Monday of every month at 7:30 pm (London time) on Zoom. Meet online with other pouchees for friendly pouch related chat!

If you have a pouch or are considering pouch surgery, and have not attended one of our regular pouch forums, then you are missing a fantastic opportunity to “meet” with other like minded individuals, to discuss and compare pouch related experiences and challenges.

We welcome regular and new attendees, ranging from people with “new” pouches, “old” pouches and “yet-to-be” pouches. (Two of our regular attendees have pouches over 40 years old, and were number 9 and 10 of the first pouches ever created!). We have attendees from all over the UK and some from further afield, including Europe and North America.

Subjects discussed are varied, including diet, medication, leakage, butt-burn, frequency, travel, catheters, recommended blood tests, dehydration…the list is endless. All those delicate subjects that you may not wish to discuss elsewhere,

The reality is that we are still a rare breed, and a common reaction from first time attendees is that they have never previously met or had the opportunity to talk to someone else with a pouch. A quote from one attendee “Thank you – I did enjoy the session. I’d forgotten that in certain circles I am perfectly normal!“.

So don’t be shy! Go to pouchsupport.org/events to register for the next scheduled pouch forum.
