Left abdomen: Left lower abdominal pain with mucus in loose stools is often a symptom of irritable bowel syndrome. Other possibilities are inflammatory bowel disease or diverticulitis of the descending colon. I find that very foul smelling stools is nonspecific. Rather than waiting 2 months for an appointment, get referred to a gastroenterologist who can see you soon. In the meantime avoid insoluble fiber.
