When I had 2 rounds chemo 3- 3 weeks apart, I drank kombucha everyday, still do most of the time. Had no problem with constipation, stool softener wasn't really working and my grand-daughter turned me on to it. Radiation had opposite issue so ate cinnamon toast every morning.

My gastroenterologist recommended taking MiraLax in the morning and Colace in the evening. This combination works for me. I start taking them as soon as I get home from my infusion. Before using this combination, I was semi-constipated for 10 days. Now I have no problems.
