Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
If cancer patient is on chemotherapy drugs then nausea, vomiting, diarrhea are common side effects with these drugs. Cancer patients are immuno compromised. So they catch stomach infection very easily. This is also one possible cause for diarrhea, nausea and vomiting in cancer patients.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
