Hey guys I just got done with my 3rd surgery of f he 3-step jpouch surgery on October 9. In the last few days I have had very liquid (yellow tinted) stool leaking out of my bottom. Does anyone know what's going on?

I think you're just adjusting to your pouch, most likely. This is one of the many reasons this process is described as difficult.
I got benefit early on from psyllium husk and Lomotil, but some surgeons seem to feel strongly about delaying these approaches.

That sounds normal. You'll have some bowel movements that are mostly mucuos and I think those, if I recall, are yellowish.
As your body adjusts, those should be less frequent and then one day should stop.
