It turns out I have to have external radiation.  I have seen many posts about taking probiotics during treatment, but not much on which brands were used.  Could you all share what brand of probiotics you are using?  Thanks!

    Culturelle

    Chris (Editgirl) recommended Culturelle to me. I'm still taking it as it is good for also helping with your immunity.

    I tookk Accuflora prior,

    I tookk Accuflora prior, during, and continue to do so.  I just went to buy them and didn't see them so I bought Nature Made since it has two pills - one of small intestine and one for large intestines.
