What do we do to fight the very bad constipation whilst on chemotherapy

  • See your gp. I had very severe constipation during my chemo. It got to the worst point when I had burst piles and bleeding and it was so painful! The gp gave me, I think it may have been called fybogel. It s orange flavoured powder type treatment that you mix with water. It may not work for everyone but it s worth a try. Good luck with everything. I know how you feel. Best wishes Sue.
