What Causes Loose Motion And Stomach Pain After Removing Appendix?

Had my appendix removed two weeks ago I am a 58 year old female. Have imp-roved greatly but still have very loose bowel movements and need to go so many times. When I get a tummy ache I have to rush to to toilet. Today I noticed mucas in my stools as well.
