What Causes Severe Abdominal Pain And Flatulence?

Hello, I am 61 years old and have recently suffered a burst Appendix. The surgeons also removed a 20cm section of gangrenous bowel. I am now suffering frequent very loose stools, extreme abdominal pain and flatulence. Is it safe for me to take Immodium, or perhaps psyllium husks. Please help.
