Hi Rhonda
I am putting on my nurse's hat here, I normally work on a ward where we deal with a lot of constipation and the dietician recommends Pear juice as the best laxative. I would also recommend kiwi fruit . As Tonya mentioned coloxyl is a little harsh.I had terrible constipation after my first chemo due to the anti nausea drugs but only the once it was diarhoea all the way after that not sure which I would prefer ! Fluid intake is important and of course exercise. No matter how bad I felt I always took the dog for a little stroll. I had neulastia like you and the walking helped those terrible aches and pains you get from the jab.
Good luck
Sarah
