Hi Rusty821
Sorry to hear you are having diarrhoea from your radiotherapy, which usually settles down after the radiotherapy course.
This link with information from Cancer Research UK may be of some use on this: cancerresearchuk.org/about-....
Hope you feel better soon and keep your fluids up to replace what you are losing with your diarrhoea. I assume you are on medication for your diarrhoea, if not speak to your oncologist or lung cancer nurse specialist.
If there is anything else you would like to discuss you can either email us at lungcancerhelp@roycastle.org or call our free phone nurse led helpline number on 0800 358 7200 Monday to Thursday 0900-1700 and Friday 0900-1600
All the best
