Take it now: I've never heard the term "pouchitis", but I'm guessing colonic diverticulitis (?). Your treatment was typical for diverticulitis, and certainly could trigger a yeast infection. You can take fluconazole (Diflucan) any time; there's no need to delay. But if in doubt either about the diagnosis of yeast, or its treatment, check with the doc who prescribed the antibiotics. Good luck!

Not on your own: Inflammation of pouch is a complex problem , is the result of various reasons , like obstruction , blind loop , poor motility , poor vascular supply , and due to partial obstruction etc , speak to your doctor , Diflucan (fluconazole) will be one of the consideration for your treatment.
