Very swollen Belly

Hi, I am new to this but hoped someone could share their experience with me. I have terminal Colon cancer with metastase to liver, lung and bones. I have been getting chemo since Feb 15, i am on my second combination of drugs. In he last 2 to 3 month i have experience very swollen belly. From my Dr response it seem to come from the combination of the tumer and fluid from my liver which is struggling to process what i put in. Has anyone experience this? If you have can you tell me what you do to cope and how this has progressed? It can get very uncomfortable and painful. I know eating very plain food helps a bit but i wondered if there is other options.
