I had terrible diarrhea after finishing chemo and it took quite some time to find a solution.
Take a good probiotic to restore the good bacteria that the chemo has wiped out. Yogurt is a good food but not with added sugar.
Dr. Block of Chicago told me to add arrowroot powder or kuzu root powder to a smoothie for quick help. All this worked for me.

As mentioned, try the probiotics and yogurt. Also, for bloating 1/4 tsp. of baking soda (yeah, the stuff in your cupboard) can help the bloating if it is in the stomach or upper intestine. If these things don't work for you after a week, contact your oncologist's office for some advice. Chronic diarrhea is a concern both for nutrition absorption but also chronic dehydration.
