hi thanks for asking as you have given a very lucid history it looks like you are having post operative pain........it does not sound that it is appendicitis........i would like to take
1) painkiller tablets
2) anti spasmodic like tab mebeverine
3) anti secretory drugs like cap omeprazole
do a full blood count to rule out surgical site infection.....
and consult the doctor who performed surgery
