Sounds like you have cuffitis and/or pouchitis.
Your GI can call you in an antibiotic prescription and possibly some rectal meds like canasa or anucort suppositories. Do not let this linger. I know you have an appointment on Dec 5th, but I would call your GI and request some medication to help you. They can prescribe them over the phone and you should get relief within a couple of days, especially with the antibotic (eg. cipro, augmentin, flagyl).

Start doing kegels and get to a rectal PT if you can. If it's not pouchitis, you could just be experiencing a weak sphincter.
