I’ve had j pouch for around 24 years and on couple occasions over last few years I’ve had what appears to be hemorrhoids and am going through a bout of it now. Anyone have this problem and is it a thing to have hemorrhoids with j pouch? Anyone been diagnosed with this by gastroenterologist and if so any tips on treating it ?

I’ve had the occasional hemorrhoid, and for me they tend to clear up on their own. I find my bidet to be vastly better than toilet paper. Straining on the toilet tends to cause (and exacerbate) hemorrhoids, so anything you can do to minimize that will help - keeping the stool soft is important. If they get severe then sitz baths can help.
