What Causes Bloating Post A Colon Removal Surgery?

I had 18 of my colon removed last year and am experiencing the same sort of bloating, passing gas and a constant pain on my right side. Yes, I still have my appendix. I have no fever, some nausea, and not much of an appetite. Oh, and my stomach is making so much noise you would think a rock band was in there.
