Bubbly belly after chemo

Hi 100KT I was told after surgery that my bowels would get used to a new normal. I get a lot of gurgling and wind and very odd noises - my husband thought there was a helicopter over the house last week but it was my stomach! I have no definitive answer and despite keeping a food diary I can’t pin down which foods cause the most problem. I think because an evening meal is generally the biggest meal of the day then this is when things start to move through the digestive system. I take 1 loperamide before my meal as my stools tend to be on the loose side. It’s also recommended not to drink during your meal. I’ve tried actimel drinks for breakfast and a probiotic gummy during the day but not to much effect. Fizzy drinks obviously have a gassy effect. 
So it’s hard to tell if it’s the surgery or the chemo but hopefully things will settle down over time?

Take care
