fiber and probiotic

As usual, everyone's results will be different, but here's my take on it. I'm one year out from my reversal and I was told the same thing about fiber and probiotics by my oncologist. I've tried them both, but they weren't combined. Of the two, I've found the fiber (benefiber) to be helpful. When I tried probiotics (visbiome), it seemed to cause incredible gut distress and I stopped taking it after a month.

For my situation, the greatest improvements seemed to be controlling my diet and just waiting for things to heal. It has been a slow process and I feel that I still have quite a ways to go, but each month seems to be a little better.

Hi there,

I had a stage T3N1b crc and my chemo has ended around Easter 2022. Since then i am recovering, slow but recovering. I had some pain and discomfort in the lower colon so my doc recommanded some probiotics. He said i should take those like 4 to 6 weeks. The pain and pressure feeling has gone.

But now i have a slight nausea every morning. Not enough to throw up but feeling pretty bad. Could this be a side effect of the probiotics?

My oncologists say it may take 6 to 12 month until full recover. Some do never full recover they say.

So speaking for myself i can't tell if probiotics work as expected. I had my microbiom inspected before i started with the probiotics. Result was that some e-coli bacteria were missing. I think it needs another stool inspection to find out if it's any better now.

But then would it explain the nausea in the morning?

All the best
