Probiotics, vitamins etc after chemo

Thanks for your suggestions Brenda, I will talk to the GP

Thanks ladies, I will check them out! Xx

With approval of my oncologist, I take a probiotic, Vitamin D and calcium to try and offset bone density reduction caused by Femara (no evidence that I can see that this works but hey!), magnesium for my arrhythmia and Vitamin B for long term neuropathy. 

I was put immediately onto Vitamin D by my Oncology Team and 14 months remain on it, the other thing is Magnesium as it services over 300 enzymes in the body so facilitates cell production in conjuction with Vit C. Thats it really and a balanced diet. Digestion dont really know, but I havent been the same since Chemo and doubt a probiotic would help much as its more inflammation. Hugs Melinda xo

Thanks Primek, I will check those two & also the link. That is interesting Michelle, I hadn't heard that before but I suppose you do have to be careful. 

I didn't use a probiotic but found just returning to a diet with lots and lots of fresh vegetables (now I can taste them again) soon improved the balance in my gut. It's still a bit sensitive though. I think calcium and vitamin D are also relevent, especially vitamin D.

Check with your MO.  Mine told me that overfeeding the good cells also overfed the bad cells. Good diet was best.

I want to know too.
