Got a question for anyone who did cisplatian/taxol and used and I P port. I have noticed since I finished chemo that my bowel movements change ofte. The go from regular to soft not watery0 then back to regular. My doctor told me this all part of recovering from the surgery/chemo and it will take a good year for everythign to get back to normal.... Just curios if any of you experienced this too. You know what lingers in the back of my mind when it happens to me. I don't even need to say it. lol |

My BMs were like that for a few months. They are consistent now. I was told by a naturopath that ovarian cancer patients should have 2-3 BMs per day. Just curious if anyone else has heard this. I only manage to have one.

hard to keep regular. I have the 2 tablespoons of fiber each day and if things aren't going well, I start taking a stool softener. I am on Weight Watchers so I eat a lot of fruits and vegetables and basically no processed food. I don't eat out much and stay away from fast food.
Even with all that there are times I don't go for two or three days, then I have to take some kind of action. I don't really get scared about it anymore because it has been this way since I finished treatment in September of 2010.
