Following a full course of chemotherapy and radiation, my wife had the same symptoms.
The treatment had killed off all of the beneficial bacteria in her intestinal tract and she was bloated from gas. This showed up clearly on a CT scan.
Her radiation oncologist suggested some “over the counter” treatments for her including Senna-S, milk of magnesia, Acidophilus and Activia yogurt to jump-start her system. These did the trick.
Of course, the FIRST thing to do is to inform your doctor. The symptoms may be related to something more serious. Your doctor can only help you if you make him/her aware of what is going on with you.
I hope this answer helps.
