Hallo Karen
Please see your doctor for an examination, possible abdominal x/ray and maybe a sample of the diarrhoea stool needs to be sent away. It may be infectious, or an obstruction due to the previous complications or irritable colon due to the previous operation (abdominal surgery often triggers spastic colon)
