Sorry you’re experiencing this. I got my Indiana Pouch about a year ago. The leaking was more frequent in the first 6 months. Now, it usually only happens for me when I wait too long to “go.” Sometimes it also happens if I don’t drink enough fluids, which produces too much mucus and then I leak that a little. Weird, I know. Have you noticed a pattern to the leaking or does it just happen randomly? My doctor was very experienced in IP surgery and said he reinforced the valve so that I shouldn’t leak. So from the info you provided it’s hard to know if your issue is from waiting too long between bathroom breaks or an issue with the surgery. My understanding is that you can have revision surgery if it is the latter.
