What Causes Mucous And Blood Spot On Stool?

Hi, I am 59, female. I was diagnosed last year with cervical cancer, stage 1B. Had a radical hysterectomy, followed by six weeks of chemo and radiotherapy. I am feeling fine now, but recently noticed that I am passing clear mucous in stool, with small spot of blood on occasion and gas gurgling in rectum. I must inform that I was not eating properly past couple of weeks. Should I be worried? Thanks for your advice
