Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. She has stage 4 ovarian cancer with distant metastasis in lung and chest wall. Treatment is chemotherapy.
Chemotherapy itself has many side effects. Her vomiting and diarrhoea will mostly be due to chemotherapy. Symptomatic treatment like ondansetrone and lopamide can be given to overcome side effects. Consult your doctor and take treatment accordingly.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
